Scalloped potatoes

Scalloped potatoes are a classic comfort food dish that combines thinly sliced potatoes with a creamy, flavorful sauce. This recipe adds a touch of freshness with red onion and parsley, making it a delightful accompaniment to any meal.

Ingredients:

5 potatoes
1000g
1 red onion
160g
2 tbsp all-purpose white wheat flour
30g
1.50 cups milk (1% fat)
360g
2 garlic cloves
6g
2 tbsp fresh parsley
10g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Ingredients:
- Potatoes: Peel and thinly slice the potatoes (about 1/8 inch thick). You can use a mandoline for uniform slices.
- Onion: Peel and thinly slice the red onion.
- Garlic: Mince the garlic cloves.
- Parsley: Finely chop the fresh parsley.
3. Create the Sauce:
- In a medium-sized saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until warm but not boiling.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk the flour with a small amount of the warm milk until smooth, creating a slurry. Gradually add this slurry back into the saucepan with the rest of the milk, stirring constantly.
- Add the minced garlic to the saucepan and cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened (about 5 minutes). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Layering:
- Grease a baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
- Arrange a layer of potato slices at the bottom of the dish, slightly overlapping each slice.
- Spread a portion of the sliced red onions over the potatoes.
- Pour some of the milk sauce over the onions and potatoes.
- Repeat these layers until all the potatoes, onions, and sauce are used, finishing with a layer of sauce on top.
5. Bake:
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven.
- Bake for 45 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden and bubbly.
6. Garnish and Serve:
- Remove the dish from the oven and let it sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Sprinkle the finely chopped fresh parsley over the top for added flavor and garnish.
7. Enjoy:
- Serve your delicious scalloped potatoes as a side dish to your favorite main course.

Tips:

- Ensure the potatoes are sliced thinly and evenly to promote even cooking and ensure a uniform texture.

- For added flavor, consider incorporating a bit of cheese between the layers of potatoes.

- Use a mandoline slicer to make the potato slices more uniform if you have one available.

- Feel free to add other herbs or spices to suit your taste, such as thyme or rosemary.

- Let the dish sit for about 10 minutes after baking before serving. This allows the sauce to set slightly, making it easier to serve.

Enjoy your delicious, homemade scalloped potatoes, perfectly creamy and enhanced with the subtle flavors of garlic and parsley. This dish is sure to be a hit at your dinner table.
