Tuesday, April 03, 2007 Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes

I know, I know. This is not the healthiest recipe. But who can say no to a delicious dish of cheesy scalloped potatoes? One of my favorite recipes for a side dish with grilled chicken or steak on the weekends.
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 cups milk
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
About 4 large baking potatoes, sliced thinly (I also do a mixture of baking and red potatoes) 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

1. Combine 1/2 cup mayonnaise and next 3 ingredients in a saucepan. Gradually add milk, and cook, stirring constantly, over medium-low heat 8 to 10 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat.

2. Add Cheddar cheese and next 3 ingredients, stirring until cheese melts and is well blended.

3. Place half of potato slices evenly in a lightly greased 11- x 7-inch baking dish; pour half of cheese mixture over potatoes. Repeat layers with remaining half of potato slices and cheese mixture. Sprinkle evenly with Parmesan cheese.

4. Bake, covered, at 350° for 1 hour. Uncover and bake 30 more minutes or until potatoes are golden brown and fork tender.
