Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C) and generously greasing a casserole dish to prevent sticking.
Step 2
Next, artfully layer the sliced potatoes in the dish, sprinkling a touch of salt over each layer to enhance their natural flavor.
Step 3
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat, then whisk in the flour to form a smooth paste.
Step 4
Gradually add the milk while stirring continuously, allowing the mixture to thicken into a luscious creamy white sauce, which should take about five minutes.
Step 5
Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and fold in the shredded Swiss cheese, stirring until it melts into a velvety sauce.
Step 6
Pour this delightful cheese sauce over the layered potatoes, ensuring every slice is lovingly coated.
Step 7
Cover the dish with foil and place it in the preheated oven, baking for approximately one hour, or until the potatoes are tender and the top has developed a beautiful golden-brown hue.
Step 8
Enjoy the comforting aroma that fills your kitchen as this dish transforms into a cheesy masterpiece.
