SUNDAY SUPPER SCALLOPED POTATOES WITH HAM

Sunday Supper Scalloped Potatoes With Ham image

I came up with this simple yet delicious main course when we had some excellent spiral-cut ham on hand. It makes a lovely early Sunday supper, and is easily adaptable to variations in ingredients. Try it with a bit of fresh rosemary or tarragon in lieu of the parsley. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Ingredients

5 large russet potatoes, sliced approximately 1/4 inch thick
1 large sweet onion, sliced thinly
6 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped roughly
5 slices cooked spiral cut ham, chopped roughly
1 cup butter, cubed
1⁄4 cup fresh flat-leaf Italian parsley
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can low-sodium cream of mushroom soup
1⁄2 cup whole milk, cold
1 cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons Tabasco sauce, to taste
1 1⁄2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 1⁄2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Grease a covered casserole dish (10 x 13, 3-4" deep) with some softened butter, or use olive oil spray.
Layer as follows:.
4 of the sliced potatoes, topped with 1/3 of the sliced onions, 1/3 of the chopped garlic, 1/3 of the chopped ham, 1/4 of the butter, 1/3 of the parsley.
Repeat above until you have a total of 3 layers, reserving 1/4 of sliced potatoes and 1/4 of cubed butter.
Whisk together the cold milk and cornstarch until no lumps remain.
To the milk& cornstarch, add the whipping cream, cream of mushroom soup, and Tabasco.
Mix this thoroughly and pour over the top layer.
Arrange the remaining slices of potatoes decoratively on top, overlapping slightly.
Dot potatoes with remaining butter.
Cover dish and bake for 1 hour, 15 minutes at 350°F.
After this time, remove dish from oven and increase oven temperature to 425°F.
Scatter potatoes with 1 1/2 C sharp cheddar cheese.
Place UNCOVERED dish back in oven and cook for 15 or 20 minutes more, until cheese on top is nicely browned.
Let potatoes cool for at least 15 minutes.
This makes great leftovers-- flavor improves with time.
