Categories     Potatoes

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 c sliced potatoes (yukon gold or russet)
3 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp flour
3 c milk (i prefer whole for these dishes)
1 tsp mustard (any kind)
1/2 lb ham, cut in cubes
1/2 onion
1 Tbsp butter, salt, & pepper
8 oz white sharp cheddar, shredded (optional)
paprika (i always use hungarian)
1 can(s) cream oc hicken soup (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350. Wash potatoes but don't slice them until ready to bake.
  • 2. Melt butter & get that nice & bubbly & golden. Then, add flour to make a roux. Once nice & bubbly, slowly add milk. Add about a tablespoon of salt. (Note: I like to add some peppercorns to this, but you can just add some ground black pepper instead). Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, about 20 minutes. Add the mustard (you may use ground, if you prefer). Whisk (or stir) well. This will be your "sauce" for the potatoes. If you desire, add a can of cream soup now.
  • 3. While cooking milk mix, saute ham cubes & onion diced in about 1 tablespoon of butter. Drain well.
  • 4. Slice potatoes & lay in casserole or baking pan. Mix in ham & onions, then pour your sauce over top.
  • 5. Stir to mix well. Bake for one hour with lid on; 30 mins with lid off. If adding cheese, I add the last 15 minutes on top to melt. Sprinkle w/ paprika & let sit about 10 mins before digging in. YUMMY!

Time 1h50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Unsalted butter, softened, for the baking dish
2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/8-inch thick
3 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Kosher salt and freshly ground white pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush a shallow 2 1/2-quart baking dish with butter. Put the potatoes in a large pot. Whisk the cream, flour, bay leaf, nutmeg, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon white pepper in a bowl, then pour over the potatoes. Cook over medium heat, carefully stirring occasionally, until the cream just comes to a simmer, about 12 minutes. Continue to simmer, adjusting the heat if necessary and stirring to prevent the bottom from scorching, until the potatoes just begin to soften, about 5 more minutes.
  • Transfer the potato mixture to the prepared baking dish; discard the bay leaf. Set the baking dish in a roasting pan and add enough water to come about halfway up the sides of the baking dish. Bake until the potatoes are tender and golden brown, about 1 hour. Remove the baking dish from the water bath and let stand 10 minutes before serving.
