These are my Favorite scalloped potatoes! They are rich and creamy, as I always use more cheese than called for. I use the fresh chives instead of dried, but you can use either. Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
2 cups milk |
1 cup shredded cheese (4 oz) |
1/4 cup fresh chives or 2 tablespoons dried chives |
6 medium red potatoes, sliced 1/4-inch thick (4 cups) |
fresh chives (to garnish) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F
2. Spray 2-qt. baking dish with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
3. In small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter.
4. Stir in flour, salt and pepper until smooth.
5. Gradually stir in milk.
6. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently.
7. Boil 2 minutes until thickened, stirring constantly.
8. Add cheese and chives; stir until cheese is melted.
9. Arrange potato slices in prepared baing dish.
10. Spoon cheese-chive mixture over potato slices.
11. Cover with aluminum foil and bake 45 minutes.
