LOW-FAT SCALLOPED POTATOES



Low-Fat Scalloped Potatoes image

If you want to lighten up a weekday or holiday meal, this dish sounds like a winner! This recipe uses yukon gold potatoes and gruyere cheese along with a combination of low-fat and whole milk. Recipe from Food Network magazine.

Provided by DailyInspiration

Categories     Low Protein

Time 55m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons unsalted butter (plus more to coat the dish)
kosher salt
3 lbs yukon gold potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup low-fat milk, at room temperature (1%)
1 cup whole milk, at room temperature
fresh ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 cup gruyere cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly butter a 3-qt baking dish. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; add the potatoes and cook until just tender, 8-10 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return to the pot. Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour with a wooden spoon to make a paste. Cook, stirring, until the paste puffs slightly, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in both milks and simmer, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in 1/2 teaspoons pepper, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and the nutmeg. Pour the sauce over the potatoes and gently toss to coat.
  • Transfer the potato mixture to the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with the gruyere cheese. Bake until heated through, about 10 minutes. Switch the oven to broil the potatoes until browned on top, about 5 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For the best results, use starchy potatoes, such as russet or Yukon Gold potatoes. These potatoes will hold their shape well and become creamy when cooked.
  • Slice the potatoes thinly: This will help them cook evenly and quickly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure there is enough space between the potato slices so that they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the potatoes until they are tender: You can check this by inserting a fork into the center of a potato slice. If the fork goes in easily, the potatoes are done.
  • Make the sauce ahead of time: This will save you time when you are ready to assemble the dish.
  • Use a light hand with the cheese: A little bit of cheese goes a long way in this dish. Too much cheese will make the potatoes heavy and greasy.
  • Serve the potatoes hot: These potatoes are best served hot out of the oven. They can be reheated, but they will not be as good.
