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

Creamy Au Gratin Potatoes image

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.

Impress guests with these deliciously creamy scalloped potatoes flavoured with garlic and parmesan. They're a great side dish for many dinners

Provided by Adam Bush

Categories     Side dish

Time 2h10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

50g unsalted butter, plus extra for the dish
1 onion, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, chopped
50g plain flour
500ml whole milk
250ml chicken or vegetable stock
1kg Maris Piper potatoes, thinly sliced (use a mandoline for the best results)
75g parmesan, finely grated

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and butter a deep 20 x 30cm baking dish. Melt the butter in a pan over a medium heat and cook the onion and garlic with a pinch of salt for 8-10 mins until the onion has softened slightly. Tip in the flour, stir well, then cook for a few minutes more. Mix the milk and stock together, then gradually pour this in, whisking well between additions until everything is incorporated and you have a smooth sauce. Simmer for a few minutes, then season well.
  • Lay half the sliced potatoes in a single layer in the buttered dish, slightly overlapping them if needed. Pour over half the sauce, then scatter over half the parmesan. Arrange the remaining potatoes on top, then pour over the remaining sauce and scatter with the remaining parmesan. Cover with foil and bake for 1 hr, then remove the foil and bake for another 30 mins until golden on top.

Tips:

  • To make sure the potatoes are cooked through, use a fork to pierce them before baking. They should be tender but still slightly firm.
  • To achieve a golden brown crust, sprinkle some bread crumbs or grated Parmesan cheese on top of the casserole before baking.
  • For a richer flavor, use a combination of different cheeses, such as cheddar, Gruyère, and Parmesan.
  • If you don't have heavy cream, you can use milk instead. However, the sauce will be thinner.
  • Leftover scalloped potatoes can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Four-cheese scalloped potatoes are a classic comfort food that is perfect for any occasion. This recipe is easy to follow and can be customized to your liking. With its creamy sauce, tender potatoes, and cheesy topping, this dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
