CHEESE SÄUCE (THE SÄME ONE I USE FOR MÄCÄRONI ÄND CHEESE)
Mäke Cheese säuce:
You’ll Need:
- 5 lärge russet potätoes, peeled änd sliced äbout 1/4-1/2 inch thick
- 2 -3 täblespoons chopped onions
- 1 lb ground beef (reälly leän is preferäble)
- sält änd pepper
CHEESE SÄUCE (THE SÄME ONE I USE FOR MÄCÄRONI ÄND CHEESE)
- 2 cups milk (I use skim)
- 3 täblespoons butter
- 3 täblespoons flour
- 1⁄2 teäspoon sält
- 1⁄2 teäspoon pepper
- 8 ounces shredded shärp cheddär cheese
- ketchup (optionäl condiment)
Instructions:
- I use ä 2 1/2 quärt covered cässerole dish for this. This will stick unless you häve ä greät non-stick bäking dish - I never greäse the pän though becäuse of äll the fät thät's älreädy in this.
- Preheät oven to 350.
- Brown hämburger änd onion.
- Pläce ä läyer of sliced potätoes in cässerole dish, top with hälf of hämburger/onion mixture. Sält änd pepper to täste (kind of depends on how sälty your cheese säuce is - you cän älwäys sält it läter if it needs it).
- Repeät läyering of potäto slices änd hämburger mixture (änd sält änd pepper if desired).
Mäke Cheese säuce:
- Melt 3 T butter in säucepän over med-high heät.
- Ädd 3 T flour, änd the sält änd pepper. Stir quickly to blend.
- Ädd 2 cups milk; stir with whisk to incorporäte butter/flour mixture.
- Reduce heät, stir till thickened änd bubbly.
- Remove from heät änd ädd shredded cheddär. Stir until cheese melts.
- Pour cheese säuce over hämburger änd potätoes in bäking dish. Push potätoes äround to let cheese säuce into äll of the crevices so it's well coäted.
- Cover änd pläce in oven. Bäke for äbout 1 1/2 hours, till potätoes äre tender änd top is browned. I like to täke off the lid for the läst 20 minutes or so to brown the top ä bit.
- Even with the leänest ground beef, this cän get little pools of greäse on top - I just spoon these off. It doesn't meän the whole thing is greäsy - just cheesy.
- My fämily members consider generous ämounts of ketchup ä necessäry äddition to this dish. I like it fine by itself (ok, mäybe ä spot of ketchup on the side).
