Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes ๐Ÿฅ”

Cheesy potatoey goodness! Scalloped potatoes are one of my absolute favorite potato dishes! This hearty side is perfect for a steak dinner or you can make it the star dish with a lighter side dish such as green salad or roasted asparagus. No matter what you serve alongside this dish, itโ€™s going to be delicious!

Ingredients:

1/4 cup butter

2-3 cloves garlic, peeled & minced

1/4 cup flour

2 cups milk

10-12 Yukon gold potatoes, scrubbed & sliced thin using a mandolin

Pinch salt

Tsp pepper

Pinch nutmeg

1 cup gruyere, grated

1 cup extra sharp cheddar, grated

1 cup non-smoked gouda, shreddded

To Make:

Preheat oven to 400

Melt butter over medium low heat

Once butter is melted, add garlic & whisk for 2 minutes

Add flour & whisk for an additional 2 minutes to create a roux

Pour in milk and continue whisking for 2 minutes until the sauce thickens

Remove from heat & whisk in salt, pepper & nutmeg then add cheeses, reserving about 1 cup for layering & topping

Begin assembling in an 8×8 greased baking dish: Layer of potatoes followed by layer of cream sauce followed by reserved grated cheese.

Repeat layering until you have used up all the potatoes, sauce & cheeses. Top layer should be grated cheese.
