Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 15

6-7 medium yukon gold potatoes, thinly sliced into 1/8th inch rounds (3 pounds gold potatoes -- by weight is a more accurate measure)
½ white or yellow onion, cut into slices
For the sauce:
2 tablespoons salted butter
¼ cup all purpose flour (whole wheat, all purpose, or gluten free 1:1 flour will all work)
1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk (regular, skim or whole milk will also work)
8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese (2 heaping cups shredded cheddar cheese)
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¾ teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
Freshly ground black pepper
For topping:
1/2 cup gruyere cheese (or sub more sharp cheddar)
¼ cup grated parmesan
To garnish:
Fresh chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 2 quart square baking dish (or an 8x12 is good) with nonstick cooking spray or grease with butter or oil.
  • Place sliced potatoes in three tight slanted rows as indicated in the photos. You don't want them to be overly tight, make sure you leave enough space so the potato slices are slightly slanted. Add in onion slices in between the rows and on top of potatoes. Basically wherever you can fit them.
  • Next make your sauce: add in 2 tablespoons of butter and place over medium heat. Once butter is melted, whisk in a little bit of the flour and then slowly add in milk, a little bit at a time, alternating with the flour and vigorously whisking away any lumps. Bring mixture to a simmer; it should be a similar consistency to creamy gravy.
  • Turn heat to low and stir in shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if necessary.
  • Pour the sauce evenly over the potatoes and onions to cover them. Don't worry, the sauce will get nice and creamy while baking.
  • Cover the pan with foil, then bake for 45 minutes.
  • After 45 minutes, remove foil, sprinkle top of potatoes with 1/2 cup shredded gruyere (or more cheddar) and ¼ cup parmesan. Return to the oven and bake for 30-45 more minutes or until potatoes are done and nice and golden brown on top. (Potatoes are done when the middle of the potatoes can be easily pierced with a fork.) Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Enjoy!

This is my husband's favorite dish, and he considers it a special occasion every time I make it. The creamy cheese sauce and the tender potatoes in this classic French dish combine to make a deliciously addictive experience. It's a great side dish with a roast pork loin or beef tenderloin. Add a green salad and French bread, and you have found the magic path to a man's heart. To avoid lumps in your sauce, add the milk just a little at a time as you stir the flour and butter. Experiment with different cheeses for variety.

POTATOES AU GRATIN



Potatoes au Gratin image

The humble potato gets the red carpet treatment in this easy yet luxurious recipe for potatoes au gratin. Sliced Yukon Gold or russet potatoes (you can use either, but don't use a combination as they cook at different rates) are layered with half-and-half or heavy cream, topped with butter and grated cheese, then baked until golden and bubbly. Feel free to play around: Add leeks, onions, garlic or more cheese between the layers. Experiment with fresh or dried herbs. It's incredibly adaptable and practically foolproof. Just don't forget to season with salt and pepper as you go. Like all potato dishes, it needs plenty of seasoning.

Categories     dinner, casseroles, vegetables, side dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 to 4 pounds potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 to 3 cups half-and-half or heavy cream
1/4 cup grated Parmesan or Gruyère
Pinch of nutmeg (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Seasoning each layer with salt and pepper as you go, layer the potatoes in a 10- or 12-inch ovenproof skillet.
  • Dot the top with 2 tablespoons butter. Pour in half-and-half. (It should come about 3/4 of the way to the top.)
  • Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to low and cook for 10 minutes, uncovered, until the half-and-half has reduced by about half.
  • Transfer to the oven and bake until the top is golden brown, about 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 300 degrees and cook until the potatoes are fork tender and the top is nicely browned, about 8 minutes more. Top with grated cheese and return to the oven until the cheese is melty and golden brown, about 3 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with a pinch of nutmeg, if using, and serve.

Tips:

  • Use a large bowl to mix the ingredients. This will ensure that all of the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  • Grate the potatoes using the large holes of a box grater. This will create a coarse texture that will hold together well when cooked.
  • Squeeze the grated potatoes as much as possible to remove excess moisture. This will help the pancakes to crisp up when cooked.
  • Add flour, eggs, and seasonings to the grated potatoes and mix until just combined. Do not overmix, or the pancakes will be tough.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add butter or oil and swirl to coat the pan. Drop the potato mixture by spoonfuls into the hot skillet, flattening them slightly with a spatula.
  • Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Conclusion:

Au gratin potato pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and they are packed with flavor. Serve them with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, salsa, or guacamole, and enjoy!
