EASY MICROWAVE SCALLOPED POTATOES



Easy Microwave Scalloped Potatoes image

This came from a recipe book given to me by my grandmother-in-law. I like it because it cooks in about 1/2 the time of regular (oven) scalloped potatoes, and tastes basically the same. Great for weeknights when time is at a premium, or if you have no room in the oven. (Note, I noticed other recipes for scalloped potatoes call for cheese or other ingredients - this is scalloped potatoes like my mom used to make, basically just white sauce and potatoes. We always eat ours with lots of ketchup on top!)

Time 40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons margarine or 3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 -6 medium potatoes, sliced
1 small onion, sliced

Steps:

  • Put margarine (or butter) into LARGE glass bowl, and microwave on High for 1 minute, or until melted. (If you really like cleaning your microwave, feel free to use a smaller bowl.).
  • Blend in flour, salt & pepper. Gradually stir in milk.
  • Microwave on High 8-10 minutes, stirring after 4 minutes.
  • Layer half the potatoes and onion in a greased 2-quart casserole dish. Top with half the prepared sauce, then the rest of the potatoes and onion, then the rest of the sauce.
  • Cover and microwave on High 20 minutes, or until done. (Cooking times will depend on the strength of your microwave; I think ours is in the 1,200-watt range, and 20 minutes usually works just fine for us).

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Unsalted butter, softened, for the baking dish
2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/8-inch thick
3 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Kosher salt and freshly ground white pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush a shallow 2 1/2-quart baking dish with butter. Put the potatoes in a large pot. Whisk the cream, flour, bay leaf, nutmeg, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon white pepper in a bowl, then pour over the potatoes. Cook over medium heat, carefully stirring occasionally, until the cream just comes to a simmer, about 12 minutes. Continue to simmer, adjusting the heat if necessary and stirring to prevent the bottom from scorching, until the potatoes just begin to soften, about 5 more minutes.
  • Transfer the potato mixture to the prepared baking dish; discard the bay leaf. Set the baking dish in a roasting pan and add enough water to come about halfway up the sides of the baking dish. Bake until the potatoes are tender and golden brown, about 1 hour. Remove the baking dish from the water bath and let stand 10 minutes before serving.

This is a delicious side dish can be largely assembled ahead: Leave off the last portion of cheese, cover the dish with plastic wrap (pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming), and refrigerate it for up to one day. Remove it 30 minutes before baking, sprinkle with the remaining cheese, and bake as instructed.

SCALLOPED POTATOES



Scalloped Potatoes image

The perfect side dish to an elegant or celebratory main course, or the welcome addition to any potluck supper, scalloped potatoes are one of those dishes that seem complicated, but are deceptively simple. You'll need to put in a bit of "peeler time" to get the spuds ready for the oven, but after that it's just a long bake and a short standing period to let the sauce thicken. Then, voila! you're ready to serve.
