This is the real deal. I found this recipe in an old church cookbook. This recipe was submitted by my great aunt that came over from Germany. We like the sauce so much that I make 1/2 again what the recipe calls for. Ingredients:
1 lb ham, sliced 1/2 inch thick |
1 tablespoon bacon fat |
2 tablespoons butter |
2 tablespoons flour |
1 1/2 cups milk |
salt |
pepper |
6 -8 medium potatoes, peeled and sliced thin |
Directions:
1. Pan fry ham in bacon fat until brown. Place in well buttered casserole dish.
2. Melt butter in a sauce pan, remove from heat and blend in flour. Return to heat and add milk. Stir over direct heat until sauce boils and thickens.
3. Arrange potatoes over ham and pour hot sauce over them. Bake in slow oven (325 degrees) until potatoes are tender, about 1 hour. Cover for first 1/2 hour then remove cover.
