Scalloped potatoes with basic white sauce, chopped onion, parsley, and sliced potatoes. Add cheese and bread crumbs to top this casserole, if desired.

Ingredients:

  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups thinly sliced onion
  • 4 1/2 to 5 cups thinly sliced potatoes
  • 2 teaspoons salt, divided
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon flour
  • 1 3/4 cups milk
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
  • 1/2 to 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • paprika

Preparation:

Bring 2 inches of water to boil in a pan; add onions, sliced potatoes and 1 teaspoon salt. Cover and boil for 5 minutes; drain. Melt butter, blend in flour, pepper, and remaining teaspoon of salt. Add milk and cook until thickened, stirring constantly. Stir in parsley. Combine vegetables and cream sauce; place in a shallow casserole and bake, uncovered, at 400° for about 35 minutes. Sprinkle cheese and paprika over potatoes and bake 3 to 6 minutes longer, until cheese is melted. Serves 4 to 5.

Awesome PotatoesAugust 16, 2009By graceatwood
"Whoever gave this only 2 stars had to have been smoking crack. This recipe was awesome! I didn't have any parsley so used cilantro, and used Monterey Jack cheese and smoked paprika for toppings. Pre-cooking the potatoes is the key to success of this recipe. I served it with grilled chicken and grilled habanera chile pork sausage. The best scalloped potatoes I have had bar none, either from my kitchen or a restaurant."
