Categories     Potato

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 medium potatoes (4 cups prepared)
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons AP flour
1 ½ cup milk
1 teaspoon salt
⅙ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1 ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (or cheese of choice)
1 sprinkle paprika (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350, not convection.
  • Slice 5-6 medium russet potatoes about 1/8 inch to make about 4 cups. If you have crazy ninja knife skills, you can do this by hand, but a mandolin is a good thing here. The setting on mine for this is "thin."
  • Rinse the potato slices in a bowl of cold water. Let soak until ready to use then dry a bit with a paper towel.
  • Start the sauce with 3 tablespoons butter over medium heat in a large pan. When melted, add 3 tablespoons flour and whisk for a few minutes. Add 1 ½ cup milk. Frequently whisk for a couple of minutes and add 1 teaspoon salt and ⅙ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional.) Bring to a light boil and whisk contentiously, and this will start to thicken in a few more minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low and add 1 cup of cheese. I used sharp cheddar. Whisk until smooth and remove from heat.
  • Layer half of the potatoes into a casserole dish (6 by 9 inches) that has been sprayed with PAM. Put them in individually, so they are not stuck together. Do not just dump them in.
  • Pour half the cheese sauce over the first half of the potatoes.
  • Add the second half of the potatoes, then rest of the cheese sauce. Now top with ½ cup of shredded cheese. Give a light sprinkle of paprika (an old fashion touch.)
  • Bake until potatoes are "fork-tender." This will be about an hour or a little more. Let sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
