  • 2 1/2 pounds potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 2 large onions, chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded Gruyere cheese
  • 3/4 cup white wine
  • 1/3 cup water

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish with the softened butter.
