Step by step recipe

1	Prepare and chop 2 onions and 2 shallots, set aside.
2	Cut ½ cooked Morteau sausage into small cubes, then set aside.
3	Slice 300 g Morbier, remove the crust, then cut half the slices into small cubes. Set aside.
4	In a large frying pan over medium heat, pour 4 tablespoons oil and when hot, add onions and shallots, season with salt and pepper.
5	Cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly colored.
6	Add the diced Morteau sausage, cook for 1 or 2 minutes, then add 2 glasses Jura white wine, and cook again until almost all the white wine has been reduced.
7	Add 250 g liquid cream and diced morbier cheese, stir until melted, then set aside. Preheat oven to 200°C (390°F).
8	Butter a gratin dish and pour in half the sliced 1 kg cooked potatoes.
9	Top with the contents of the pan, onions, sausage and morbier cream.
10	Add the other half of the sliced potatoes.
11	Finish by placing the morbier slices on top, and if you like it crunchy, place the morbier croutes on top too. Sprinkle with a final glassful of Jura wine, as you can never have too much.
12	Bake for around 20 minutes, just long enough for the morbier cheese on top to melt and brown. Your morbiflette is ready.

Remarks

If you like the crispness of the grilled morbier crust, you can keep it and add it to the top before baking, as indicated in step 11, or leave the morbier slices on and place them as they are on the potatoes.
This recipe's proportions are only indicative, so don't hesitate to adapt them to your own taste and to what you have on hand.
If you prefer a more grilled Morteau sausage side, in step 4 first place the cubes in the pan on their own and without oil, then after just 3 or 4 minutes of cooking, add the onion.
