Prep Time:30 minutes
Cook Time:1 hour
Total Time:1 hour 30 minutes

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter softened
  • 1-1½ pounds potatoes (about 4 small potatoes) sliced ¼ inch thick
  • 1¼ cups heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ cup diced onion
  • 1 cup white cheddar

Instructions

  • Prep. Preheat oven to 350 with the rack in the center. Prepare a shallow casserole dish by rubbing it with the butter.
  • Make cream mixture. Combine the heavy cream, flour, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl or large liquid measuring cup.
  • Assemble. Place the potato slices in the casserole dish, one layer deep. Sprinkle ¼ of the diced onions on top. Repeat the layers until all the onions and potatoes have been used. Pour the cream mixture on top.
  • Bake. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 45-55 minutes, until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. Remove the foil. Carefully sprinkle the cheese on top and return to the oven until the cheese is melted, about 10 minutes.
  • Serve. Remove and allow to stand 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Russet potatoes are best for this dish, but honestly any type will still be delicious.
Add cooked diced ham and serve with a green salad for a complete meal, or serve with grilled tri-tip and a roasted veggie.
