Hereâs a different take on a classic potato dish. Bursting with sun-kissed tomato flavor, itâs special enough for entertaining and goes together easily.Katherine Barrett, Bellevue, Washington Ingredients:
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes (not packed in oil), chopped |
1 cup boiling water |
1 large onion, sliced |
3 tablespoons butter |
1 tablespoon minced fresh oregano |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2-1/4 cups fat-free milk |
1 cup grated parmesan cheese |
3 pounds potatoes (about 9 medium), peeled and thinly sliced |
Directions:
1. Place tomatoes in a small bowl. Cover with boiling water; let stand for 5 minutes. Drain and set aside. 2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook onion in butter until tender. Add the oregano, salt, pepper and reserved tomatoes; cook 2 minutes longer. Sprinkle with flour; stir until blended. Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; stir in cheese. 3. Place potatoes in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish; top with sauce.
