Moms Red Scalloped Potatoes Recipes

MOM'S SCALLOPED POTATOES WITHOUT CHEESE

Steps:

• Generously grease a 9x13 pan with butter. Peel all of the potatoes. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Stir the salt, pepper and onion powder in a tiny bowl until combined. Divide it into three sections.
• You will be making three layers of potatoes in the pan. Start by slicing 1 pound of potatoes (about 3 medium-to-large red potatoes) thinly (1/8-inch thick). A mandoline works well for this, but you could use a box grater or a food processor.
• Blot the slices with paper towels to dry them and arrange them evenly in the pan, overlapping slightly and stacking as needed. (Continue blotting the potatoes with a paper towel as needed. You don't want soggy potatoes.)
• Sprinkle on 1/3 of the total salt, pepper and onion powder mixture. Sprinkle 1 1/2 tablespoons of flour over the potatoes. Cut up 2 tablespoons of butter into squares and dot them over the potatoes.
• Slice another pound of potatoes as before and blot them dry. Arrange them in a new layer in the pan, stacking as needed. Sprinkle on half of the remaining salt, pepper, onion powder. Sprinkle on 1 1/2 tablespoons of flour, reserving an even tablespoon of flour for the top layer. Cut up 2 tablespoons of butter and dot the butter over the potatoes.
• Slice your final pound of potatoes as previously and blot them dry. Arrange the potatoes in an even layer, stacking as needed. Sprinkle on the remaining salt, pepper, onion powder. Evenly sprinkle on 1 tablespoon of flour (avoid having clumps of flour on the top layer, or you'll have raw flour on top after baking.) Cut up 2 tablespoons of butter and dot the pieces over the potatoes.
• Pour the milk over the potatoes to fill the bottom of the pan and barely cover the potatoes.
• Bake uncovered for 70-80 minutes. The potatoes are done when the entire surface is golden brown and crispy. The edges of the pan will have dark brown crust. (Watch the potatoes carefully starting at the 65-minute mark, since oven times vary.)
• Refrigerate leftovers for up to five days. Reheat leftovers in the microwave.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Spread about 1/3 of the potato slices into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with about 1/3 of the onion slices. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons flour over the potato and onion. Arrange 2 tablespoons butter atop the flour. Season the entire layer with salt and pepper. Repeat layering twice more.
• Heat milk in a saucepan until warm. Pour enough warm milk over the mixture in the baking dish so the top of the liquid is level with the final layer of potatoes.
• Bake in preheated oven until potatoes are tender, 45 to 60 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart casserole dish with 2 tablespoons butter and set aside.
• Peel potatoes and cut at a 45-degree angle into 1/4-inch thick round slices.
• Arrange 1/3 of the potato slices in an even layer in the bottom of the prepared dish. Season the layer very generously with salt, and sparingly with the freshly ground black pepper, and cayenne, if using. Top evenly with 1/3 of the Cheddar cheese. Repeat this process two more times for a total of three layers of potatoes, except for the last third of the cheese. Slowly and carefully pour in the milk, without upsetting the layers. The milk should almost, but not quite, cover the potatoes.
• Top with remaining Cheddar cheese and place the casserole dish on a sheet pan to catch any drips.
• Bake in the center of the preheated oven until potatoes are tender and the top is well browned and bubbling, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
