A wonderful Au Gratin potato dish baked with real cream, sharp cheddar cheese, and onions. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon unsalted butter |
3 large russet potatoes, peeled, thinly sliced |
1/2 yellow onion, thinly sliced |
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded |
1 pint heavy cream |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a casserole dish with the unsalted butter.
2. NOTE: To prevent browning of the potatoes, you may place them in a bowl of water.
3. Begin by making a layer of potatoes, placing side by side and overlapping. Top with a small amount of salt, pepper, and cheese, followed by cream just to cover the layer.
4. Repeat until all potatoes and onions have been used. Cover final layer with salt, pepper, and cheese, followed by just enough cream to cover the potatoes.
5. Bake in the oven uncovered for 45 minutes or until dish is bubbly and the top is golden brown.
6. OPTIONAL: You may top the dish with crumbled Ritz crackers or seasoned bread crumbs.
