Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 2 cups whole milk
- Salt and white pepper
- 1 1/2 pounds new red potatoes, cooked and sliced 1/2-inch thick
- 3 ounces grated Cheddar cheese
- 3 ounces grated Monterey cheese
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease an 8 cup rectangular baking dish with 1 tablespoon butter. In a nonreactive saucepan, over medium heat, melt the remaining butter. Stir in the flour and cook for 2 minutes. Whisk in the milk and cook until the liquid is slightly thick and coats the back of a spoon, about 4 to 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat. In a mixing bowl, toss the sliced new potatoes with salt and pepper. Fold in the cream sauce and pour into the prepared pan. Sprinkle the top of the potatoes with the grated cheese. Place the pan in the oven and bake until golden brown and bubbly, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool for a couple of minutes before serving.

Excellent! Improvised a little by adding real bacon bits to potatoes. Also addded leftover bits of cheese in the frig, pepper jack and shredded parmasan and topped with shredded cheddar. Will make this again and try the diced green chiles as someone suggested. Quick and Easy! ;

As always, Emeril's recipes rock. This was very good. I was surprised when I read the reviews that the potatoes were not cooked enough since the recipe calls for cooked potatoes. If you are one of those people, I suggest you give this recipe another shot and be sure to boil the potatoes first. Just make sure they are not mushy when you remove them from the water. I will go a little heavier with the seasoning next time though.

People, read the ingredients! It says the potatoes should be cooked BEFORE you put them into the baking dish. Excellent recipe by the way. for a bit of crunch, add some breadcrumbs to the top.
