Scalloped potatoes are thinly sliced and cooked in cream. To a purist, this recipe may be considered au gratin potatoes since cheese is added to the side dish. Both terms seem to be used interchangeably in recipes nowadays. Whatever you want to call it, these potatoes are decadent and delicious. They're cheesy, creamy, and a must on your holiday table. Red potatoes are used in this recipe which have a naturally smooth, creamy texture. If you prefer soft onions, saute them in a pan for a few minutes before beginning the cheeses sauce.

Ingredients

  • 4 or 5 medium red skin potatoes, peeled and sliced thin (I use a mandolin for uniformity); 4-5 cups total sliced potatoes
  • `1/3 c all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 c butter
  • 2 c milk (I use 2% milk)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • black pepper, to taste
  • 8 oz shredded or grated cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 onion, minced
  • chicken broth
  • minced garlic, to taste
  • parsley
