Today on The Stay At Home Chef I'm showing you how to make
Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes.
I love scalloped potatoes!
They are total comfort food.
Add on a little extra cheese and you have
an indulgent dish that's perfect for those
long winter months and all of those holidays in between
where you need delicious tasty side dishes.
We're going to start by peeling our Russet potatoes.
Now I want to show you a little trick that I use.
Now it's really simple. I lay down a paper towel
so that as I am peeling my potatoes
all of the peels end up on the paper towel
so that when we're done clean up is a total breeze.
It's simple, but it's effective and it makes life just a little bit easier.
Next we need to slice all of our potatoes nice and thin.
The easiest way to do this is with a food processor.
You can also use a mandoline,
or slice it by hand with a knife.
That's probably the hardest way to do it, but it can be done.
I run mine through the food processor because it is so fast.
I honestly don't know how I lived before a food processor.
We're going to take all of these sliced potatoes,
and you can see that they are nice and thin,
And we're going to pour them all into a large mixing bowl.
Make sure you get them all out.
Then pour on 1 cup of heavy cream
And then we'll add some cheesy goodness with
½ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese.
And you want to make sure you are using freshly grated,
not that stuff from the plastic can.
Then we're going to season things up with
2 cloves of minced garlic,
½ teaspoon salt,
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg,
Adn ¼ teaspoon of black pepper,
And I just use tongs to toss this all together.
You want to give this a good toss until you feel like
all of the spices and garlic and everything are evenly dispersed.
Then, we're going to pour all of this into a lightly greased 9x9 baking dish.
Now if you want to be all fancy,
you can place each slice individually
and create nice little rows and nice little layers and be all fancy
But I'm all about keeping life simple
because this is comfort food for me.
So I'm just dumping it in the pan.
Then I'm going to take some sharp cheddar cheese
and sprinkle it on top to add in
some extra cheesy goodness that I promised.
And that's it.
I bet you never knew that scalloped potatoes
could be so easy to put together.
Next we're going to bake this in a 350 degree oven
for about 1 hour
Or until your potatoes are tender
which will depend on how thin you were
able to cut them so a
djust the cooking time accordingly.
If you're worried about the cheese browning
too much on top because your oven is a "browner"
simply place a piece of aluminum foil loosely over the top.
This will stop the cheese from browning anymore
and you can finish baking your potatoes until they are tender.
And then you're ready to eat.
Thanks for watching!
