About 4 large Idaho potatoes, peeled,
sliced very thin
1 or 2 onions, sliced thin
Layer the above in a buttered dish. Sprinkle salt and fresh ground black pepper between the layers
Sauce
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
1 to 2 tbls flour
About 2 cup milk
3/4 to 1 cup cheese (more or less) sharp
Cheddar, Velveeta, Swiss, etc., grated
bread crumbs, plain or mixed with parmesan cheese
Melt butter, add flour to make a loose paste ( you have to judge this one...the thicker the paste, the thicker the sauce). Don't let it brown. Add milk and mix together with a wisk until it gets thick. Add some salt and Pepper. Add cheese. Pour sauce between the layers. You can add more cheese between the layers too. Top with cheese and a thin layer of plain bread crumbs. Bake in a 400 degree F oven for 1 1/2 hours.
