In the prepared baking dish, create layers of potato slices, sprinkling each layer with salt and pepper. Distribute the onion-pancetta mixture and spinach evenly between the layers. Top with the shredded cheese. Pour heavy cream evenly over the entire dish, ensuring it seeps down between the layers. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil. (20 minutes)

Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Remove the foil and continue baking until the potatoes are tender and the top is bubbly and golden brown, about 30 minutes more. (90 minutes)
05 Step

1 hrs 30 mins
Let stand for 10 minutes before serving to allow the dish to set slightly. (10 minutes)
For a richer flavor, consider using Gruyere or Fontina cheese in addition to or in place of the Mexican cheese blend.
Ensure the spinach is thoroughly drained to prevent a watery dish.
A mandoline is highly recommended for achieving uniform potato slices, which ensures even cooking.
To prevent sticking, you can line the bottom of the baking dish with parchment paper before greasing it.
For a vegetarian option, omit the pancetta and sauté mushrooms with the onions for added depth of flavor.

Sep 7, 2024My potatoes weren't fully cooked after 1 hour and 30 minutes. I had to bake it for another 20 minutes. Maybe slicing the potatoes thinner would help.
Xander Ullrich
Aug 13, 2024I found the dish a bit too rich. Next time, I'll try using half-and-half instead of heavy cream.
