Cheese And Onion Potatoes Recipes

CHEESY ONION POTATOES

Steps:

• If you are using unpeeled potatoes make certain to wash and scrub the skin, and if you are slicing the potatoes ahead of time and soaking in water the potatoes must be dried with a paper towel before using in this recipe.
• Place the hot melted butter in a bowl; add in garlic powder,dry onion soup and cayenne pepper; mix to combine and allow to sit for about 30 minutes to soften the onion flakes (you may leave it sit for more time if desired) stir occasionally.
• Slice the potatoes into quarters, then place in a large roasting pan; sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper.
• Pour the butter mixture over the potatoes; toss to coat (I use my hands for this).
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Set oven rack to bottom position.
• Bake uncovered 30 minutes.
• Remove and stir the potatoes.
• Place back in the oven and bake uncovered for another 20- 30 minutes or until just fork tender, removing and stirring another time while cooking (cooking time will depend on the thickness of the potatoes).
• Sprinkle with cheese and green onions over the hot potatoes.
• Serve immediately.

• Layer 1/2 of the potatoes into bottom of the prepared casserole dish. Top with the onion slices, and add the remaining potatoes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• In a medium-size saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Mix in the flour and salt, and stir constantly with a whisk for one minute. Stir in milk. Cook until mixture has thickened. Stir in cheese all at once, and continue stirring until melted, about 30 to 60 seconds. Pour cheese over the potatoes, and cover the dish with aluminum foil.
