HAM AND POTATO CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Arrange a rack in the top third of the oven and heat the oven to 350°F. Coat a 2-quart baking dish (such as an 8x8x2-inch) with cooking spray or butter.
• Peel and cut 2 pounds russet potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes (about 5 1/2 cups). Place in a large bowl and add 1 cup diced ham. Dice 1/2 medium yellow onion. Grate 8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese on the large holes of a box grater (about 2 cups).
• Melt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Add 2 cups whole or 2% milk, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, and stir until the flour is dissolved. Bring to a simmer, stirring often. Simmer until thickened to the consistency of cream sauce, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add 1 1/2 cups of the cheese and stir until completely melted. Taste and season with more kosher salt as needed.
• Pour over the potato and ham and stir to combine. Transfer to the baking dish and spread into an even layer.

Turn the oven on to broil and broil until the cheese on top is melted and browned in spots, 2 to 3 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes for the sauce to thicken before serving.
