Mise en place
-
Wash the potatoes. We’re cooking with the peel on.
-
Slice the potatoes into thin (.5cm) slices.
-
Chop the garlic.
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 °F / 180 °C.
-
Into a large pan, bring half of the pan with water to a boil
-
Par boil the potato slices for 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and set aside.
-
Into a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic. Cooking for 1 to 2 minutes.
-
Start adding the flour, constantly stirring until it’s smooth.
Lower the heat so you don’t get all the moisture off the butter while adding the flour.
-
Once the flour is incorporated into the butter, add the milk, continuously stirring as you pour the milk.
-
Season with salt, pepper, and mustard.
-
Once the sauce starts to get thick, add the cheddar and take it off the heat, stirring it until the cheese incorporates with your sauce.
-
Bring your sauce and potatoes into a large bowl. Toss them together until the potatoes are fully coated by the sauce.
-
Into a baking glass tray, grease it with oil before adding your scalloped potatoes, topping with parmesan cheese.
-
Cover the potatoes with tin foil and brig it into the over for 45 minutes.
-
Remove the tin foil and bake for extra 15 minutes.
