Creamy & Cheesy Funeral Potatoes Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 tablespoons (1-stick) salted butter
1 (28- to 32-ounce) bag frozen shredded hash brown potatoes (or Southern Hashbrowns, as in cubed)
1 medium onion, finely diced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup grated sharp Cheddar
2 cups kettle-cooked potato chips (or corn flakes)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-x-13-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of the butter. Take the potatoes out of the freezer while you are preparing the rest of the ingredients. Heat a large, deep skillet (or Dutch oven) over medium-high heat, then melt 6 tablespoons of the butter in it. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions start to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir to incorporate. Cook for a minute or 2 to cook out the raw flour, but do not let it color. Whisk in the milk, making sure to get out all the lumps. Add the broth and whisk again if there are still lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer and allow it to thicken, about 3 minutes. Note: Mine didn't thicken as much as I'd like, so I added about another 1/4 cup of flour.) Season to taste with salt and pepper. Turn off the heat and stir in the Monterey Jack, sour cream and Cheddar. Add the hash brown potatoes and mix everything together. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a small pan. Put the potato chips (or corn flakes) and Parmesan in a bowl and crush the potato chips. Pour in the melted butter and toss to coat. Sprinkle the crumbs over the top of the potatoes. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes, then remove the foil and continue baking until golden brown on top and bubbling around the edges, about 15 minutes more. Note: Depending on your oven, you might need about 25 minutes of baking time. The casserole should be bubbly and slightly brown around the edges. Let rest for 15 minutes before serving.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

These potatoes were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them instead of frying them next time.

This recipe was a little bland for my liking. I think I'll add some garlic and onion next time to give it more flavor.

These potatoes were a bit too cheesy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think I'll try making them again with less cheese next time.

I've never been a big fan of funeral potatoes, but this recipe changed my mind. The cheesy sauce was so flavorful and the potatoes were perfectly cooked. I'll definitely be making this again.

These potatoes were cheesy, creamy, and delicious. I added some diced ham and green onions for extra flavor. They were a big hit at my potluck.

This dish was easy to make and turned out great! I used a sharp cheddar cheese and it gave the potatoes a nice flavor. My family loved it.

These funeral potatoes were a hit at my family gathering! The cheesy, creamy sauce was perfectly complemented by the crispy potato topping. I will definitely be making this dish again.
