A wonderful side dish to serve along with your baked ham or roast beef or any meat you like. Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
3 cups milk |
1 (10 ounce) package cheddar cheese, shredded (use a good quality block cheddar, such as cabot or cracker barrel, and shred yourself) |
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onion |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
4 lbs potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced |
1 1/2 cups soft breadcrumbs |
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine, melted |
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour, and cook, whisking constantly, 2 to 3 minutes or until flour is lightly browned. Whisk milk into butter mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 6 minutes or until thickened. Stir in cheddar cheese and next 3 ingredients, stirring until cheese melts.
2. Spread a 1/4 cup of cheese sauce evenly into a lightly greased 13 x9 baking dish. Layer half the potatoes over the sauce. Top with half the remaining sauce. Repeat with remaining potatoes and cheese sauce.
3. Bake at 325 degrees Fahrenheit, covered, for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
4. Stir together bread crumbs, melted butter, and Parmesan cheese. Remove potatoes from oven and spread the bread crumb mixture evenly over the potatoes. Bake, uncovered, 20 to 30 minutes more, or until potatoes are tender.
