Categories     Potato

Time 1h10m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons butter, softened
8 large russet potatoes, scrubbed clean
3 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
fresh ground black pepper
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, freshly grated
2 green onions, sliced thin (white and light green parts only)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a large baking dish with the butter.
  • Dice the potatoes.
  • Combine the cream and milk in a bowl. Add the flour, salt and some pepper. Whisk it together well so that the flour is incorporated into the milk/cream mixture. Add the diced potatoes to the prepared baking dish and pour the creamy mixture all over the top.
  • Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 to 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake 15 to 20 minutes more. Just before serving, sprinkle on the grated cheese and return it to the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, 3 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle on the green onions and serve it hot.

Overall, I thought this recipe was pretty good. The potatoes were creamy and the cheese sauce was flavorful. However, I found that the dish was a bit too heavy for my taste.

This recipe was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I would have preferred a more balanced flavor between the potatoes and the cheese.

This recipe was easy to follow and the potatoes au gratin turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a different type of cheese. I used cheddar, but I think a Gruyère or Emmental would be better.

I had some trouble getting the potatoes to cook evenly. Some of them were still a bit hard in the center, while others were overcooked. I think I might have needed to slice the potatoes thinner.
