Au Gratin Potatoes With Ham Electric Skillet Food

HAM AND POTATOES AU GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 F.
• Place half of the sliced potatoes in a single layer at the bottom of a 9x13-inch casserole pan and top with cubed ham, peas and onion. Place the remaining half of the potatoes over the mixture. Set aside.
• Prepare the sauce by melting butter in a medium saucepan over over medium high heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Whisk in flour to form a thick paste similar to the consistency of cake frosting, and cook for 1 minute.
• Stir in milk and chicken broth until sauce is smooth and uniform. Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium heat and let it simmer until thickened to desired consistency, about 5 minutes. Stir in Italian seasoning and cheddar cheese. Add salt and pepper, to taste (I did not add any salt and pepper as the ham I used was already very salty).
• Pour the cream sauce over the potatoes and spread evenly.
• Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil and transfer to the oven. Bake for 50 minutes.
• Remove from oven and sprinkle the remaining cup of cheddar cheese evenly over the casserole. Return the baking dish to the oven and bake uncovered for another 20-25 minutes until the melted cheese turns golden brown on top.
• Let the casserole cool for 15 minutes before serving. Garnish with parsley and serve.

HAM AND POTATOES AU GRATIN RECIPE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions and cook for about 10 minutes until they are soft and translucent.
• When the onions are done, sprinkle flour over them and whisk to combine. Continue cooking the onion and flour mixture until the flour is golden brown, about two to three minutes.
• Slowly add the milk and continue whisking to prevent lumps. Cook until the sauce has thickened, which usually only takes a few minutes. Add salt and pepper, mix well and remove from the heat.
• Spray a medium-size casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray or butter the dish. Add half of the sliced potatoes, then half of the cubed ham, and about half of both kinds of grated cheese.
• Pour on half of the sauce. Repeat the next layer with the remaining potatoes and ham, pour the remaining sauce over the top and sprinkle with the remaining cheeses.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil or a cover and bake at 350 degrees F. for 40-60 minutes. How long it takes depends on the thickness of the potato slices.
• Remove the cover and test to see if your potatoes are done by piercing them with a fork. The fork should slide through easily. If not done, continue cooking for another 10 minutes or so. Once the potatoes are fork-tender, remove the cover and bake for another 20-30 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is golden brown.
• Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
