Scalloped Potatoes

Rach and I tried these, but think we can do better next time. Rach thinks we should sub in chives for the onion and add some 3-year-old cheddar into the cream sauce next time. For now, this is what we tried tonight.

You will need:

• 6 potatoes, peeled and sliced
• 1 onion, sliced
• 2 1/2 cups of milk
• 1/3 cup corn starch
• 1/2 tsp. thyme
• Salt and pepper
• Non stick cooking spray

Spray a rectangular casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray.  

In a sauce pan add cornstarch, thyme and salt and pepper to taste.  Add milk, a bring to a boil of low to medium head, stirring constantly.  Once bubbling, stir for another 1 or 2 minutes.

Layer potatoes in casserole dish, then onion, another layer of potatoes and onion, topping with a final layer of potatoes.  Pour cream sauce over potatoes and use a butter knife to help distribute cream sauce through all the layers of potatoes.

Bake covered in a 350F oven for one hour.  Bake for another 30 minutes uncovered.
