THE BEST CHEESY SCALLOPED POTATOES



The Best Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes image

What makes this the best out of all the scalloped potatoes recipes out there? I slice them extra thin and toss them in a rich, creamy cheese sauce. Then, to make them the best ever, I sprinkle homemade bread crumbs on top-they get nice and crispy in the oven. Make room for these at all your family get-togethers. -Aria Thornton, Taste of Home Prep Cook

CHEESY SHEET PAN SCALLOPED POTATOES



Cheesy Sheet Pan Scalloped Potatoes image

Those irresistible crisp, lacy edges are the best part of scalloped potatoes, so we make them in a sheet pan-increasing the surface area for maximum browning. The sauce is packed with plenty of sharp Cheddar that goes perfectly with thin slices of tender potato.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 55m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, for the pan
2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 1/4 pounds medium Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed (about 8)
1/3 cup grated Parmesan
8 ounces sharp Cheddar, grated

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly grease an 18-by-13-inch sheet pan with the butter.
  • Bring the cream, thyme, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat, then turn off the stove.
  • Thinly slice the potatoes on a mandoline or vegetable slicer into rounds about 1/8 inch thick. Arrange half the potato slices in a single, overlapping layer on the sheet pan and sprinkle evenly with salt, half the Cheddar and half the Parmesan. Top with the remaining potato slices and sprinkle with salt. Drizzle the hot cream mixture evenly over the potatoes. Use a small offset spatula or butter knife to spread the garlic and thyme evenly over the potatoes.
  • Cover the pan with foil and bake until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a paring knife, about 20 minutes. Carefully remove the foil and sprinkle the potatoes with the remaining Cheddar and Parmesan. Cook uncovered, rotating the pan halfway through, until very brown and crusty on top, 15 to 20 minutes more.

CHEESY SCALLOPED POTATOES



Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes image

A delicious recipe from Southern to the Core cookbook received from BusyMomof3 in the 2011 Cookbook Swap, must admit to cooking this but I add ham and spring onion (scallion in place of onion) to the mix so consider this the base mix and delicious. On preparation time it can vary hugely dependig on if you use a mondolin or food processor or by hand and then depending on your knife skills, so I have tried to take a middle line here on the timing.

Categories     Potato

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups potatoes (thinly sliced, use a food processor or mandolin)
1/4 cup onion (chopped, for dietary purposes would use spring onion)
1 tablespoon flour
4 tablespoons butter (melted)
1 teaspoon salt (personally omit due to dietary reasons and use salted butter)
1/8 teaspoon pepper (personally would use more)
2 cups cheddar cheese (shredded)
1 1/2 cups milk (heated)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Grease 9 x 13 inch baking dish and spread half of your potatoes on the bottom of the dish, overlapping as necessary and then layer half of your onions.
  • In a small separate bowl, mix your flour, butter, salt and pepper then sprinkle half of this mixture to make the next layer and then on top of this layer half of your cheese and the repeat to create your second layer and now add milk and cook for 45 minutes or until the potatoes are good and tender (Just to warn you this is supposed to look pretty soupy. To be safe, you might want to put a piece of aluminum foil underneath your pan in case of run over,).

Tips:

  • Use a variety of cheeses. This will give your potato stacks a more complex flavor. Try using a combination of sharp cheddar, Parmesan, and Gruyère cheeses.
  • Grate your own cheese. Pre-shredded cheese contains additives that can prevent it from melting smoothly.
  • Use Yukon Gold potatoes. These potatoes have a creamy texture and hold their shape well when cooked.
  • Slice your potatoes thinly. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. Make sure there is enough space between the potato stacks so that they can cook evenly.
  • Bake the potato stacks until they are golden brown and bubbly. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
  • Let the potato stacks cool slightly before serving. This will help them hold their shape.

Conclusion:

Cheesy scalloped potato stacks are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish. They are perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your potato stacks turn out perfectly every time.
