Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 Tbsp oil
1 - 14 oz kielbasa - sliced and cut in half
1 medium sweet onion, sliced and cut in half
6 medium potatoes - peeled, washed and sliced - i used my mandolin to keep thinness consistent - about 1/4 inch
2 c cheddar or favorite shredded cheese
WHITE SAUCE
3 1/2 Tbsp butter
4 1/2 Tbsp flour
1 1/2 c chicken broth
1 c heavy cream
1/2 c milk
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1/2 - 3/4 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp pepper

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium skillet over medium - high heat, add oil - once hot, add the kielbasa & onions, stirring occasionally - you want the sausage to start caramelizing and the onion to soften. Set aside.
  • 2. Peel, wash and slice potatoes. Can do ahead, keep in cold water. You could par cook these now too, to cut down baking time, if using a harder potato- such as Russets. I usually will boil 10 - 15 minutes to soften some.
  • 3. Start sauce: In a medium saucepan over medium heat- melt butter and once melted add the flour...whisk to make a paste and continue cooking for at least a 1 minute to remove the flour taste. I usually stir for 1 1/2 min.
  • 4. Add the broth slowly and whisk as adding, making sure there are no lumps. Now add the cream and milk - then seasonings. Stirring often until you have a thickened white sauce. Taste now, and see if needs more seasonings.
  • 5. In a 4 quart casserole. Ladle enough sauce to cover the bottom of the dish. Next, layer half the potatoes, then half the kielbasa and onion mixture. Next half the cheese.
  • 6. Repeat layer of sauce, potatoes, kielbasa and end with cheese. ( you will need to push potatoes some into the white sauce). When cooking the sauce will cover the potatoes. So don't worry.
  • 7. Cover and bake in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes. Then, remove foil and continue baking for 40 minutes longer or until potatoes are fork tender.
  • 8. Serve along side of your favorite vegetable and maybe a nice slice of crusty bread. Enjoy!

I'm a vegetarian, so I used tofu instead of kielbasa. It was still delicious! The tofu added a nice protein boost to the dish.

I made this recipe in a slow cooker and it turned out great! I just cooked it on low for 6 hours and the potatoes were perfectly cooked and the kielbasa was fall-apart tender.
