I've had this recipe forever and have tinkered with it over the years to perfect it. Now it's a family favorite. I serve it a lot during the holidays.
Ingredients:
4 to 5 medium white potatoes, peeled and diced
2 tablespoons butter
2 medium red onions, chopped
2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup half-and-half cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
4 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
Directions:
1. Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 10-15 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside.
2. In large saucepan, melt butter. Saute onions until tender; stir in the flour, thyme, salt and pepper until blended. Gradually add cream. Bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; let cool slightly. Stir in the mayonnaise and mustard. Pour sauce over potatoes; transfer to a 1-1/2-qt. baking dish.
