A classic side dish that goes well with any meal is creamy au gratin potatoes. A thick cheese sauce covers layers of potatoes and onions that have been thinly sliced. The dish is then baked until it is bubbly and golden brown.

Ingredients:
  • 6 large potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375F 190C

Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish

In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat

Stir in flour until smooth

Gradually add milk, stirring constantly until thickened

Layer half of the potatoes and onion slices into the baking dish

Pour half of the sauce over the potatoes

Season with salt, pepper, and half of the Cheddar cheese

Repeat layering potatoes, sauce, and Cheddar cheese

Cover with foil and bake for 1 hour

Uncover and sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top

Return to the oven and bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown
