ITALIAN STYLE SCALLOPED POTATOES RECIPE

Steps:

• Note: I have cooked these in an instant pot on high for 6 hours, a regular slow cooker or baked in the oven.
• Follow manufacturer instructions for other methods than using the oven.
• Preheat oven 375 degrees. Oil spray whatever cooking vessel your using. You will need at least a 3 to a 4-quart casserole dish.
• First wash, peel and slice the potatoes. (We like ours a little thicker so around 1/4 inch thick)
• In a small saucepan on medium heat, add the butter, saute the garlic until it is just soft around 30 seconds.
• Stir in the flour to make the roux and blend for another minute or so until the desired color is achieved around 1 minute, darker roux adds more flavor.
• Pour in the milk and stir until it gets thick.
• Pour in the cheeses, seasoning, fresh parsley, dried herbs and fold in the meat of choice, mix together.
• In your oil sprayed cooking vessel add the potatoes on one layer, then some cheese mixture, more potatoes then end with sauce.
• Garnish the top with more provolone (or cheddar if you prefer)cheese, then sprinkle the top with bread crumbs with more Parmesan grated evenly and chopped parsley.
• This will take at least an hour to cook or so, testing with a fork to see if the potatoes are soft.
• Note: If using a slow cooker or instant pot 6 to 8 hours on high adding 1/2 cup more milk to this recipe.

SCALLOPED POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and butter a deep 20 x 30cm baking dish. Melt the butter in a pan over a medium heat and cook the onion and garlic with a pinch of salt for 8-10 mins until the onion has softened slightly. Tip in the flour, stir well, then cook for a few minutes more. Mix the milk and stock together, then gradually pour this in, whisking well between additions until everything is incorporated and you have a smooth sauce. Simmer for a few minutes, then season well.
• Lay half the sliced potatoes in a single layer in the buttered dish, slightly overlapping them if needed. Pour over half the sauce, then scatter over half the parmesan. Arrange the remaining potatoes on top, then pour over the remaining sauce and scatter with the remaining parmesan. Cover with foil and bake for 1 hr, then remove the foil and bake for another 30 mins until golden on top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Spread about 1/3 of the potato slices into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with about 1/3 of the onion slices. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons flour over the potato and onion. Arrange 2 tablespoons butter atop the flour. Season the entire layer with salt and pepper. Repeat layering twice more.
• Heat milk in a saucepan until warm. Pour enough warm milk over the mixture in the baking dish so the top of the liquid is level with the final layer of potatoes.
• Bake in preheated oven until potatoes are tender, 45 to 60 minutes.
