# Ingredients Required:

# Guide to Cooking:

01 - Preheat the oven to 190°C. Lightly grease a baking dish to prevent sticking.
02 - Cut Yukon Gold potatoes into thin rounds, ensuring uniform thickness for even cooking.
03 - Combine balsamic vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped thyme, salt, and black pepper in a bowl, stirring well.
04 - Arrange a layer of potato slices in the baking dish, then brush evenly with the balsamic mixture. Repeat layering and brushing until all potatoes are used.
05 - Cover the dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes to allow potatoes to soften and absorb flavors.
06 - Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes to develop a golden, crispy top layer.
07 - Let the torte rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing and serving to allow settling.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - For an extra savory note, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top before the final baking stage.
