Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly butter a 9-inch gratin dish.

Using a mandoline slice potatoes and turnip into 1/8-inch-thick slices.

Layer 1/2 of the potatoes and turnips in the bottom of the gratin dish. Sprinkle 1/2 of the thyme leaves over the vegetables season with salt and pepper and top with 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese.

Layer remaining 1/2 of the potatoes and turnips on top of the cheese. Sprinkle remaining thyme leaves over the vegetables. Season with salt and pepper again. Pour half-and-half evenly over the top and cover with remaining 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese.
