SCALLOPED POTATOES FOR TWO
Since I sometimes have to cook for just me, I've been on a search for recipes that make enough for just one or two people. So when I came across this one in the TOH 2002 Annual Recipes that was sent in to them by Edith Jennings of Prarie City, Iowa, I knew I had to try it.The time for peeling the potatoes has been included in the prep time. I guess if you wanted to speed up the time it takes to prepare this recipe, you could slightly cook the potatoes in the microwave or on the stove top. The addition of the French Fried Onions was my idea. Sumitted to " ZAAR " on October 21, 2009.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or russet potatoes are the best for scalloped potatoes because they hold their shape well and have a creamy texture.
- Slice the potatoes evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly.
- Use a sharp knife: A dull knife will crush the potatoes and make them more likely to fall apart.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the potatoes will steam instead of roasting and they won't get crispy.
- Season generously: Scalloped potatoes should be well-seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Add some herbs or cheese: For extra flavor, add some fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary, or some grated Parmesan cheese.
- Cook until golden brown: The potatoes are done cooking when they are golden brown and tender.
Conclusion:
Scalloped potatoes are a classic side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like them creamy or crispy, cheesy or herby, scalloped potatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that is perfect for any occasion.
