Cook the Book: Dutch Oven Scalloped Potatoes

Here's the first of the week's recipes from Robb Walsh's Texas Cowboy Cookbook. These cheesy scalloped potatoes would make a fine meal by themselves but go especially well with, no surprise, grilled meats.

Dutch Oven Scalloped Potatoes

Ingredients
2 pounds potatoes, scrubbed

3 tablespoons butter

1 1/2 cups grated Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

1/2 large onion, thinly sliced

2 cups milk


Procedure
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Meanwhile, remove any eyes or bad spots from potatoes, and slice thinly.

2. Butter a small Dutch oven or an 8-inch square baking dish; layer half the potatoes on bottom. Sprinkle with 1 cup of the grated cheese and with the remaining butter. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Layer with other half of potatoes and the onion slices. Add the milk; sprinkle with more salt and pepper over top.

3. Bake potatoes, covered, until very tender, about 1 hour. Remove cover, sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese, and bake, uncovered, until potatoes are browned, about 30 minutes. Serve hot.
