Scalloped Potatoes with Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto image

I saw this demonstrated on the Oprah show and I knew I had to try these out. Oprah was writhing with pleasure while she described these, and now I know why!

Categories     Potato

Time 1h10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 lbs yukon gold potatoes
1 cup sun-dried tomato pesto (see recipe I posted here on the 'zaar)
salt
freshly ground black pepper
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil or 1 tablespoon chopped fresh marjoram
1 cup parve chicken broth or 1 cup low-sodium chicken stock, heated to boiling
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400ÿF.
  • Lightly oil an 11 © x 8-inch (2-quart) baking dish.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil over high heat.
  • Peel the potatoes and cut into 1/8-inch-thick rounds (a mandoline or food processor does the quickest work).
  • Add to the boiling water and cook until barely tender, about 8 minutes.
  • Drain and toss with the pesto to coat evenly.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Layer half of the potatoes in the dish, sprinkle with one third of the cheese, and sprinkle with basil.
  • Continue until you have 3 layers, finishing with cheese.
  • Pour in the hot broth.
  • Cover tightly with aluminum foil.
  • Bake for 30 minutes.
  • Uncover and continue to bake until the cheese is bubbling and starting to brown, about 15 minutes.
  • Serve hot, sprinkled with parsley.

I didn't have any sun-dried tomatoes on hand, so I used roasted red peppers instead. It was a great substitute.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used pine nuts instead of walnuts in the pesto. It was still delicious.

I'm a vegetarian, so I substituted the chicken broth for vegetable broth. The dish still turned out great!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my potatoes didn't turn out as creamy as I would have liked. I think I might have needed to cook them for a bit longer.
