Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

3 medium sweet potatoes
5 medium red potatoes
5 medium purple potatoes
6 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
7 cloves garlic (finely minced or pressed)
2 teaspoons sea salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
parmesan shavings for serving ((optional))

Steps:

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the sweet potatoes, red potatoes, and purple potatoes into slices about 1/8 inch thick. Try to make the slices as even as possible, and choose potatoes with approximately the same circumference. You should end up with approximately 100-120 slices, depending on thickness.
Add the potato slices to a large bowl and toss well with the olive oil, rosemary, thyme, garlic, sea salt, and pepper until the potatoes are evenly coated.
Arrange the potato slices in your choice of casserole or baking dish (approximately 9-inch by 13-inch in size, preferably oval or round in shape) in a spiral pattern, alternating sweet, red and then purple slices to create a patterned design (if you wish).
If there is any leftover oil and herb mixture, pour it evenly over the potatoes you've arranges in the baking dish.
Bake, uncovered, for about 30-35 minutes, or just until the potatoes are fork tender.
Serve immediately, with some shaved parmesan on top if desired.

FABULOUS & EASY POTATO CASSEROLE SIDE DISH

Fabulous & Easy Potato Casserole Side Dish image

Just a few words before I post my recipe: This is one of the best recipe sites I've found on the web and I've looked at dozens over the past 16 years. When I posted my 1st recipe, Blue Mill Tavern Loosemeat Sandwiches, last March, I never expected the response it got (36 reviews!). It's extremely gratifying to know by just sharing a recipe I've been able to give joy to others. Thanks to all of you who have written me and those who've posted a review. It's heartening to know so many of you are trying new things. I've been cooking all my life-I live to cook and cook to live. I feel like I've found some kindred spirits here. Here's another family favorite via my SIL in northern Minnesota. It's been enjoyed by dozens of hungry eaters at my table. If you're looking for low-fat, low-carb, keep on looking cuz this isn't it. This is sinfully delicious, to be savored, not regretted. Consider yourselves forewarned:-) It goes especially well with BBQ ribs, baked ham, dutch oven chicken and is terrific with fresh fried walleyed pike but you try it with whatever you like. It also makes a large amount so it works well for a family gathering or a holiday meal. This dish will not only really please your husband, it will pass muster with the toughest mother-in-law:-) Bon Appetit!

Time 1h30m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

2 1/2 lbs hash browns (I use fresh packaged HB found in dairy section of Groc. store-takes 2 packs.)
1/2 lb of shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup onion, diced
2 cups heavy cream (whipping)
1 teaspoon salt
pepper

Steps:

Preheat oven 350 degrees.
Combine all ingredients and stir till well mixed.
Butter (or spray with Pam) a large casserole dish.
Pour mixture into dish.
Cover dish and bake for one hour.
Uncover and bake till top is golden brown approximately 20-25 minutes.
This dish reheats well either in the microwave or oven.

Tips:

- For a crispy potato casserole, use a combination of Yukon Gold and russet potatoes. Russet potatoes will provide the structure, while Yukon Gold potatoes will add creaminess. - Don't overcrowd the potato casserole dish. This will prevent the potatoes from cooking evenly. - Use a sharp knife to slice the potatoes evenly. This will help them cook evenly. - Add your favorite seasonings to the potato casserole. Some popular options include garlic, thyme, rosemary, and black pepper. - If you're using a frozen potato casserole, be sure to thaw it completely before baking. - Serve the potato casserole hot and bubbly. It's a perfect side dish for any occasion.

Conclusion:

Potato casserole is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With so many different recipes to choose from, you're sure to find a potato casserole that you'll love.
