Ma's Delmonico Potatoes image

This is my Mother's adaptation of the famous restaurant's specialty. She's been making it for 40 years, and has passed the torch to me. It is what I am always asked to bring for Christmas and Easter dinner. So savory and even better heated up the next day. I have also added chunks of ham and frozen peas for a one-dish meal.

Yield 4 quarts, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 lbs potatoes, boiled, peeled and cubed
6 tablespoons butter
6 tablespoons flour
3 teaspoons salt

  • Cook, stirring with whisk constantly, until bubbly.
  • Add milk and continue stirring until mixture starts to become thick.
  • Begin adding shredded cheese by the handful, stirring all the while.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my potatoes turned out burnt. I think I left them in the oven for too long.

These potatoes were a disaster! They were mushy and flavorless. I don't know what I did wrong.

The potatoes were good, but I found the recipe to be a bit bland. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

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

These potatoes were an absolute hit with my family! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the seasoning was perfect. I will definitely be making them again.
