2 vine-ripened or other ripe tomatoes, (about 3/4 pound), sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
Freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme leaves
2 ounces finely grated Cantal or cheddar cheese
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees with rack in upper third. Coat a 9-by-13-inch gratin dish with 1 teaspoon oil, and sprinkle with garlic. Using a mandoline or a very sharp knife, slice potatoes and zucchini as thinly as possible into rounds. Arrange potatoes, zucchini, and tomatoes in overlapping layers in prepared dish, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Drizzle with remaining 4 teaspoons oil, and sprinkle with thyme and cheese.
Cover with foil; bake until potatoes are tender, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove foil; continue baking until top is golden brown, about 25 minutes more. Remove from oven, and serve immediately.
