| My mother used to make this on a regular basis and its a delicious, economical dish that can be expanded or shrank to make more or less servings.
4 cups sliced peeled potatoes , about 6 medium spuds 1/2 cup chopped onion 2 tablespoons all purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 2 tablespoons butter 2 1/2 cups hot milk 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, if you want
In greased 10-cup baking dish, layer about one quarter of the potatoes. Sprinkle with one-quarter of the onion, flour, salt and pepper; dot with one-quarter of the butter. Repeat layers three more times. Pour in milk. Top with cheese (if using) during the last half-hour of baking.
Bake, covered, in 180C oven for about 1-1/2 hours or until tender; remove lid during last half-hour to allow top to brown lightly. _________________ Bloomin' Lovely Blog Pumpkins on the Vine |
