Herbed Scalloped Potatoes And Onions Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Spread about 1/3 of the potato slices into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with about 1/3 of the onion slices. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons flour over the potato and onion. Arrange 2 tablespoons butter atop the flour. Season the entire layer with salt and pepper. Repeat layering twice more.
• Heat milk in a saucepan until warm. Pour enough warm milk over the mixture in the baking dish so the top of the liquid is level with the final layer of potatoes.
• Bake in preheated oven until potatoes are tender, 45 to 60 minutes.

Steps:

• In a greased 2-1/2-qt. baking dish, layer potatoes and onion. In a saucepan, melt the butter; stir in flour until smooth. Gradually add broth, mayonnaise, salt and pepper; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thick and bubbly. Pour over potatoes. Sprinkle with paprika. Cover and bake at 325° for 2 hours or until tender.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 2-quart baking dish and set aside.
• In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pancetta and cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Add the onions and season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until the onions begin to caramelize, about 20 minutes. Add the thyme and garlic and cook 1 minute.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the Swiss chard and blanch until tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and squeeze on towels to remove excess liquid.
• Spread a layer of potatoes in the bottom of the prepared dish, slightly overlapping the slices. Season with Essence, and top with a layer of the onions. Place a layer of Swiss chard on top, followed by more potatoes and onions. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Add the cream, top with cheese and cover with foil.
• Roast until nearly all the liquid has been absorbed, about 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking until golden brown and bubbly, an additional 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Butter a 13x9-inch glass baking dish.
• In a large pot, melt butter over medium heat; add onion and sauté for 8 minutes or until starting to brown. Add vinegar; boil, stirring and scraping up brown bits, until evaporated. Whisk flour into milk; gradually pour into pot, whisking constantly. Cook, stirring for about 5 minutes or until bubbling and thickened. Remove from heat; stir in parsley, rosemary, salt and pepper. Add potatoes; toss gently to coat in sauce.
• Spread evenly into prepared dish. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake uncovered, for about 45 minutes or until golden and bubbling and potatoes are tender. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
• COOKING TIP: Use yellow-fleshed potatoes for a pretty colour - the most familiar variety is Yukon Gold, but any will do. for white potatoes, use an oblong, baking -style potato such as a russet. Round, wazy or new potatoes don't absorb the sauce properly in scalloped potatoes.
• FOR THE ADVENTUROUS: Use white balsamic vinegar in place of the cider vinegar. Use 2 oz of Canadian Brie cheese, cut into small cubes, in place of the Colby.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. In a skillet, cook the onion and 2 tablespoons of the butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until it is very soft. In a heavy saucepan, melt 6 tablespoons of the remaining butter over moderately low heat, whisk in the flour, and cook the roux, whisking, for 3 minutes. Add the milk, scalded, in a stream, whisking, and bring the sauce to a boil. Simmer the sauce, whisking, for 1 minute and add salt and pepper to taste.
• Peel the potatoes and slice them ⅛-inch thick. Spread about one third of the sauce in the bottom of a well-buttered 3-quart gratin dish at least 2 ½-inches deep, cover it with a layer of potato slices, overlapping the slices slightly, and cover the potatoes with one third of the onions. Sprinkle the onions with one third of the Cheddar and continue to layer the remaining sauce, potatoes, onions, and Cheddar in the same manner. Sprinkle the top with bread crumbs, and dot it with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter, cut into bits.
• Bake the mixture, covered with foil, in the middle of preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake the potato mixture for 35 minutes more, or until the top is golden and the potatoes are tender.
