Categories     Food & Cooking     Main Dish Recipes     Casserole Recipes

Time 2h20m

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more, softened, for dish
8 ounces shallots (about 4), thinly sliced (1 1/3 cups)
1 clove garlic, minced
2 thyme sprigs, plus 1 teaspoon leaves
2 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/8-inch-thick rounds
2 cups whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
5 ounces sharp white cheddar, grated (about 1 1/2 cups)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F with a rack in lower third. Brush a 2-to-2 1/2- quart baking dish with butter. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots, garlic, and thyme sprigs; cook, stirring occasionally, until shallots are beginning to turn golden, 5 to 7 minutes (if they brown quickly, reduce heat). Stir in potatoes, milk, cream, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, about 3 minutes. Remove and discard thyme.
  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer one-third of potato mixture to prepared dish. Season with salt and pepper; sprinkle with one-third of cheese. Repeat layering once more; top with remaining potato mixture and season. Cut remaining 2 tablespoons butter into cubes; sprinkle over top. Carefully pour liquid from pan over top. Scatter on remaining cheese, thyme leaves, and more pepper. Transfer dish to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet.
  • Bake until bubbly, 1 hour, 20 minutes to 1 1/2 hours. Let cool at least 20 minutes (so cream mixture can be fully absorbed), loosely tented with foil, before serving.

Tips:

  • To select the best sweet potatoes, look for ones that are firm and have a smooth skin. Avoid any potatoes that have blemishes or bruises.
  • For a creamier scalloped sweet potato dish, use heavy cream instead of milk.
  • Grated Parmesan cheese can be added to the topping for an extra cheesy flavor.
  • Fresh herbs, such as thyme or rosemary, can be added to the sweet potatoes for a more complex flavor.
  • If you don't have Vidalia onions, you can use another sweet onion variety, such as Walla Walla or Maui.
  • If you don't have English cheddar cheese, you can use another sharp cheddar cheese.
  • Scalloped sweet potatoes can be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven or microwave.

Conclusion:

Scalloped sweet potatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or main course. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With their sweet and savory flavor, scalloped sweet potatoes are sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
