Categories     Side Dish

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ pounds gold potatoes (or baby Yukon potatoes, washed and thinly sliced (⅛ of an inch thick))
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 cups milk
1 ½ cups shredded white sharp cheddar cheese (divided (may sub an Italian cheese blend for milder flavor))
½ packet ranch seasoning/dressing mix ((If you love ranch flavor, you can use the whole packet))
salt and pepper to taste ((I used about 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper))
optional: ½ red onion (thinly sliced)
1 cup crispy French onions ((usually found with the salad toppings and croutons))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375. Place sliced potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Cover and cook about 15-minutes or until potatoes are tender. (The thicker your potato slices are, the longer they will take to cook) Drain and set aside.
  • While potatoes are boiling, prepare the sauce. In a large sauce pan melt butter over medium heat. Add flour and stir until mixture clumps up. Slowly whisk in the milk until a thick sauce forms. Add garlic powder, 1 cup of cheese, ranch seasoning, salt, and pepper and stir until cheese is melted and completely incorporated.
  • Add the sauce and potatoes to a large bowl and toss to coat. Transfer to a casserole dish. (If using red onions, layer them in with the potatoes) Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake, uncovered, for about 10 minutes until cheese is bubbly. Top with French onions and serve.

FRENCH ONION SOUP POTATO GRATIN



French Onion Soup Potato Gratin image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h25m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 tablespoons unsalted butter, wrapper reserved
5 large Spanish onions, sliced about 1/4 inch thick
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
About 3/4 cup beef stock
2 tablespoons sherry
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
3 pounds Yukon gold potatoes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound Gruyere, shredded
8 ounces mozzarella, shredded
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1 1/4 cups beef stock
One 4 1/2-ounce bag premade croutons, lightly crushed
One 3 1/2-ounce bag French fried onions

Steps:

  • For the caramelized onions: In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Once melted and bubbling, add a large handful of the onions and cook until translucent, 1 to 2 minutes. Repeat until all the onions have been added. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions turn medium brown, about 30 minutes. If the onions start to get too dark, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of beef stock as necessary. Add the sherry to deglaze the pan. Add the mustard and stir to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • For the potato gratin: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, cut the potatoes into thin slices. Do your best to keep the potatoes in a stack--this will make it easier to layer them in the pan. Set the potatoes aside.
  • Use the reserved butter wrapper to lightly grease the bottom and sides of a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet. Discard the wrapper.
  • Arrange a thin shingled layer of potatoes in concentric circles around the skillet. Season the potatoes with salt and pepper, then arrange an even layer of caramelized onions on top of the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the Gruyere and mozzarella and reserve half for later use. Sprinkle on a layer of the remaining cheese mixture over the onions. Repeat the layers until all the ingredients (not including the reserved cheese) have been used. Press down firmly on the layers to flatten.
  • In a large bowl or measuring cup, combine the heavy cream and beef stock and pour over the gratin. Cover the skillet with foil and place on a sheet pan. Bake the potatoes, covered, until the top and edges have begun to brown and the potatoes are tender, 1 hour 15 to 1 hour 30 minutes. You can test by inserting a knife into the potatoes; if it goes in and comes out without resistance, then the potatoes are done.
  • Remove the skillet from the oven, remove the foil and turn the broiler on high. Combine the croutons and French fried onions. Cover the gratin with a layer of the crouton mixture followed by the remaining cheese. Broil until golden brown and bubbly, 5 to 8 minutes. Serve and enjoy!

  • Use a good quality broth. Chicken broth or vegetable broth will work well. You can also use white wine or beer for a more complex flavor.
  • Season the dish well. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good choices.
  • Bake the dish until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will usually take about 45 minutes.
  • Let the dish cool slightly before serving. This will help the potatoes hold their shape.
