Best Scalloped Potatoes Recipe

"Kartoffelgratin"

These are the BEST scalloped potatoes you can make because this is such an easy and fool-proof way to make them.

In German this is called Kartoffelgratin and is so German - it uses whipping cream, of course!

No, this isn't the healthiest way to eat potatoes, but it is among the most delicious. In the picture below, the scalloped potatoes are shown with Baked Salmon Dijon and Lima beans. That's the healthy offset for this meal.

If you've made scalloped potatoes before, you know the mess 'the flour and milk method' makes - when it boils out of the baking dish all over the oven or is still watery when you serve (or worse, yet, lumpy!)

This method works all the time. It's great for first-time chefs because it's so delicious AND easy!

Easy Scalloped Potatoes Recipe

Ingredients:

2 lbs. potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
2 cups whipping cream
salt, pepper

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400° F.
Grease casserole dish (a larger shallow dish is better than a deep one - there's more crust to enjoy!)
Heat whipping cream to boiling point.

Pour into prepared casserole dish.
Bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes or until done.
