I just wanna say, putting the sauce and mixing it with the potatos like that makes a HUGE difference rather than just layering it, thank you for this tip!
Kellie, thanks for this recipe. I prepared it Christmas Eve UNCOOKED.and refrigerated It overnight. The next morning it was a bit watery on top, maybe separated since I used 1 cup each fat free milk and cream. I stirred it all up and baked it. It worked great and was delicious. It was decadently thick. Next time I’ll use all milk for a less thick version.
Girl this looks good but give this a try. Use evaporated milk instead . Use atleast 2 long blocks of cheese (marble) add chopped green onions and basic seasonings like salt and pepper . Boil the potatoes ( until a little tender it will finish cook in the oven ) and dont cut them too thin. Layer it instead of mixing everything together . Start with the cheese sauce ( will be less thick but thats what u want as it will get thicker in the oven) top it off with the rest of sauce make sure everything is well covered . Bake at 350 until golden brown at the top. Let cool before serving or it will be a hot mess on your plate trust me!! This is what we call potato pie where i come from. ( we add more things to spice it up but i gave you the simple easy recipe . )
Amazing! was a little worried the sauce was too thick, nope, came out creamy and moist with golden around the pan. Highly recommend it's our new go to.
I realize this is an older video. But I tried this recipe and it came out PERFECT! I love white cheddar cheese and will use this recipe over and over again! Thank you!!!
Came to this site to learn how to make this for Easter dinner! Just learning how to cook and was wondering the amount of ingredients are used in this video, everyone is thankful for the recipe and I’m excited to make it, just don’t want to mess it up, Thank you!
Family says these are the best scalloped potatoes I have ever made! Tasted amazing with the Easter ham! I doubled the recipe to use the 5lb bag of potatoes...I had to switch up the cheese based on what I had though.. so I used 2 cups shredded swiss, 1 cup fancy expensive swiss, 1 cup shredded medium cheddar. I also ran out of milk so 2 cups milk, one cup of heavy cream, one cup sour cream... I was really hoping they would be as good as the original recipe - and I stuck with the portions of cheese & dairy. THANKS for sharing this recipe!
@@delectableprovisions this was scalloped potatoes. It starts with a roux. Au gratin is started with heavy whipping cream. this from research I've done. Eagle eye of you to notice.
OMG, I’ve been working too hard making this dish! I tried this recipe this week and it was great. My 6 year old autistic daughter even helped. It was so delicious with minimal effort. I will never go back to the old way again. The only thing I did differently was use shredded Gouda (I didn’t feel like going to the store)🤗
This came out absolutely fantastic. Whole family loved it. Awesome recipe with very reasonable effort for the payoff. I made some minor modifications: two cloves garlic, an extra oz of butter, and some more salt. Came out really good, would definitely recommend.
looks good! Making this weekend...it says it can be prepared in advanced, how far in advance and would you need to cool down the cream mixture before assembling?
I'm quite intrigued with the bechamel sauce. Will deffo try it next time. My previous attemps were tasty but sauce curdled/split making it not very attractive.
can I use full cream milk instead of low-fat milk? will that make a difference or no cus we don't have it in the fridge and I'm planning on making this for dinner later
Yes, you can definitely use cream and it will just be richer....actually better tasting than if you use low fat milk. I just try to cut the calories where I can but when I make this for holidays I always use cream.
This looks great Killie, and pretty easy too, maybe even a tired old batch can do it? On my way to the kitchen now. Any reason none of the recipes I've seen call for any onion? seems like a natural to me.
there's not really that much difference....I like to use cornstarch for gluten free recipes but flour works just as well. You will need to use a little more cornstarch than you would flour to thicken up the sauce.
I think the foil helps to steam cook the potatoes for a while before it is taken off. That way, you don't need to parboil them first. It also stops the cheese from browning too much.
What is ''kosher'' salt that makes it different to ordinary salt please. I've never seen it for sale - don't know if you can get it here unless it's possibly in specialist shops = so I'm wondering if it's vital to use this because it has a particular herb or something added (sort of like garlic, onion or celery salt) which is why you say to use it over normal salt.
Hey there! Not sure where you live, but in the US, the two main types of salt you see at the store are Kosher Salt and Iodized Table salt. Iodized salt is much finer and has a different flavor than Kosher salt, which is a larger salt crystal. I prefer Kosher Salt, but truly, any salt you have access to should work fine in this recipe- just maybe add slightly less than I recommend. You can always add more salt later, but you can't really take it out once it's in!
I want to try this but I don’t get the measurements.. how much is supposed to be a cup? In french recipes we have exact measurements in grammes or milliliters so I don’t know 🤷🏻♀️ How much is 5 cups of potatoes? 1 kg?
It definitely will but make sure to sauté the mushrooms first so they don't make it watery. Cooking them beforehand releases the moisture from the mushrooms.
I just wanna say, putting the sauce and mixing it with the potatos like that makes a HUGE difference rather than just layering it, thank you for this tip!
Thank you! It was created out of frustration for undercooked potatoes with a mix of overly sauced potatoes.
I do the same for my mac and cheese by mixing the sauce and noodles together.
agree
Great music. You got style!!! Bringin to soul food!!!
I appreciate that!
Made this recipe with 4 large potatoes and it came out so well with plenty of leftovers. Made our Christmas feel a little more normal. Thank you! 😇
Great to hear!

1 cup each fat free milk and cream. I stirred it all up and baked it. It worked great and was delicious. It was decadently thick. Next time I’ll use all milk for a less thick version.
The fat free milk is the reason it separated and became watery. All milk may be a better swap but not fat free.

What spices do you add? 🤔 Looking for a good recipe 😊
Make your own video! This one is Great!
Can I bake it in the microwave?
pOtAtO pIe is not gratin

idk if a whisk is the best tool for mixing the butter but go crazy queen. looks good
It worked. 🤣
Amazing! was a little worried the sauce was too thick, nope, came out creamy and moist with golden around the pan. Highly recommend it's our new go to.
So happy you liked it!
Thank you for the recipe. Is the butter salted or unsalted please ?
I used salted butter.
I made this and it split, but I just added more milk and it worked, great recipe, tastes amazing, thank you!
Thank you!
I realize this is an older video. But I tried this recipe and it came out PERFECT! I love white cheddar cheese and will use this recipe over and over again! Thank you!!!
You are so welcome!
Merry and blessed Christmas this helped me make potatoes au gratin for first time
Happy holidays!
The base is super delicious! I added panko breadcrumbs on top for the last few minutes. Adds a crunch !
Great idea!

Sounds like life steered you into a major change-up! Sometimes it’s not what we want, but what is better for us.
I thought this was au gratin

Yes.

How long in oven? And temp.? Please
@@itsmegreta1110 I followed the oven directions from the recipe I believe
Agree a little more salt is necessary. Otherwise great recipe.
Love music and the recipe. Excellent.
Thanks so much 😊
I made this 4 times till now it’s so good 😊 love from Iraq 🇮🇶 🥰
Thank you!
Hi… the potatoes are boiled before put in to oven (baked)?
@@putrie.r9897 no , fresh and straight to the oven will melt In the heat
@@noorvibes8226 thanks 🙏🏽
What kind of cheese do you have in Iraq?
I made this but added a crushed chicken chicken bouillon cube and I put a diced onion in with the butter and garlic! Omgosh 😉.. so yummy
Love it!!
looks good! Making this weekend...it says it can be prepared in advanced, how far in advance and would you need to cool down the cream mixture before assembling?
You can make it up to 24 hours in advance and, yes, you need to let the cream cool before assembling.
Oh my gosh 😍 truly the very best recipe!!... all my boys including the husband were very happy with tonight's dinner, muchas gracias!!! ❤
Glad you liked it!!
Thank u for sharing dear i like it merry Christmas
Happy holidays!

Thanks Kelli. Great video
You are so welcome!
Hey what's the serving size for the recipe here. Looks delicious btw
Serves about 8 people
I made these in July. And god they were the best that I ever tasted. Well I’m back to make again. So lucky to have found this video again!!!
Glad you like them!
Bake for how long? What temperature?
bake for how long? with or wo cover?
Full recipe instructions in the description below.
Looks so good will make soon!
It's so good!
Delicious 😋 thanks 😊
Most welcome 😊
I'm quite intrigued with the bechamel sauce. Will deffo try it next time.
My previous attemps were tasty but sauce curdled/split making it not very attractive.
Hope you love it as much as we do!
Made this last night and my boyfriend says its the best potatoes he's ever had. SO GOOD!
That's great! Thank you so much!
This recipe reminds me of the Army DFAC in fort hood. They would serve this dish at least once a week.
Hi, looks yummy. Are the potatoes boiled before to the oven (bake)?
They are not. They're raw and they'll cook in the oven.
Hey, i was wondering that 350°, is it Fahrenheit or Celcius? And for how many serving suggestions?
Fahrenheit
And it serves 6-8 people
Thank u for share.
Pls, what herb did u add
in the very end🙏🏽
This is not specified in
ur description😔
It's just parsley sprinkled on top.
Hi This looks so delicious. Like to do this for Xmas. Can I check how long is the bake time ?
The instructions are in the description....ingredient amounts, cooking time, everything you need.
@@TheSuburbanSoapbox Thanks. Sorry I missed it
What about the thinly sliced potatoes? They appeared to have been boiled when you brought them in to the mixing bowl. Were they?
They're not boiled first. The potatoes are raw.
can I use full cream milk instead of low-fat milk? will that make a difference or no cus
we don't have it in the fridge and I'm planning on making this for dinner later
Yes, you can definitely use cream and it will just be richer....actually better tasting than if you use low fat milk. I just try to cut the calories where I can but when I make this for holidays I always use cream.

Onion is great with potatoes!
Can I use cream instead of milk ? Or can I use half and half
No mucks around gonna make this for Christmas. I’m gonna par boil my potatoes first and then add the sauce and then bake.
Enjoy!
I don't know which is better... The potatoes or the music!
what is the difference between using flour and cornstarch? thanks in advance
there's not really that much difference....I like to use cornstarch for gluten free recipes but flour works just as well. You will need to use a little more cornstarch than you would flour to thicken up the sauce.
how I measure 3 once butter? can u put cups on the recipe please?
Well, it's much less than a cup so about 3 tablespoons.
awesome thanks, what is the benefit of the alfoil/ aluminium foil while cooking? Gen Z with no cooking experience sorry if that is a dumb question :-P
I think the foil helps to steam cook the potatoes for a while before it is taken off. That way, you don't need to parboil them first. It also stops the cheese from browning too much.
does the potatoes have to be cook when we put in the pan or no?
It doesn’t need to be cooked first. It will cook in the cream.
Bake for how long and at what temp? Kind of big omissions.
Written recipe is in the description and includes those details.
How long in the oven?
Looks good! Will be trying tonight!
Hope you enjoy
Made this! Sooo good! Thanks for the recipe, will surely make another one next weekend. Everyone in the family loves this. Yum!😋

How much is 5 cups of potatoes? 1 kg?
The full recipe is in the description!
You can go on Google and they transform cups to kg, tablespoons to grams, temperatures from F to Celsius etc... for you :) I do that all the time...
It's a little more than 900 grams.
pamela68 Thank you :)
Kellie Hemmerly - The Suburban Soapbox Thanks a lot 🥰
Good recipe. Also think layering works better than mixing altogether.
Yes it does!
Is it fine if I add mushrooms?
Yes? Sautéed mushrooms would be a great addition!
Thanks for your recipe
Most welcome 😊
Bake for how much minutes and at what temperature?
Looks so good I’m making some now. Wish me luck lol
Hope you enjoy
Not sure I agree with the title but this looks good.
I get it, it's very controversial. :-)
can i use mozzarella cheese instead of white cheddar?
Mozzarella will have less flavor and be extra stretchy but it should still work.
Heat temperature and time?
350 for about 30 minutes
Looks Good !!
It was!
Should I boil the potatoes ?
No, no need, they cook in the oven.
Had to put this on repeat for the song! Also, I added a bit of nutmeg.
Good tip!
How many minutes to bake?
This looks awesome… I added some Italian sausage to mine and ended up with a food-gasm!
That sounds amazing!!!
My family loved it! Thanks for making me a master chef for the evening!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I would like to try this recipe. But can I use normal salt instead of kosher salt?
Yes you can!
@@TheSuburbanSoapbox Thank you~~
What milk did she use?
Low Fat.
Bake for how long?
Can i use flour rather than cornstarch ?
Absolutely.
Yes, absolutely
how many does this serve?
8
This is now a family staple its so delicious the whole family loves it. It is fail proof.
Thank you! I’m glad you love it!
I made this tonight (9/29/2020) & OMG it was DELICIOUS!!! My family raved about it! Great recipe , TFS
Wonderful! Thank you for your comment!
Dam, I just seen that you need to do it in advance, will it taste different if I do it the same day?
It will be just as amazing if you bake the same day!
Can I switch out potatoes for broccoli?
Then it's not Potatoes au gratin. It would be broccoli au gratin.
i wonder if this will work if i add mushrooms as well in it..hehehe..
It definitely will but make sure to sauté the mushrooms first so they don't make it watery. Cooking them beforehand releases the moisture from the mushrooms.
@@TheSuburbanSoapbox btw.. do u cook the potatoes first or just soak them 1st while making the sauce?
Is it ok If I use mozzarella cheese?
I haven't tested it with mozzarella but I would assume it would be ok, maybe just super stretchy when you serve it.
With 350 you mean 350 degrees or Fahrenheit?
350 degrees F.
At what degree should we bake them at???!
No measurement and list of ingredients and temperature, how long to cook in the oven?
In the description
very helpfulll great.
Thank you!
@@TheSuburbanSoapbox one thing got finished first on thanksgiving meal
How much time should it be in the oven !
Based on the description, at least 1 hour. First 30 minutes, cover the dish and the rest of the time remove the cover.
It clearly says how long in the description
Thank you!
is the potato boiled?
It is not, they go into the oven raw.
Hello po. bagong kaibigan full sup sayo
Good
Thanks
Quick question, are the potatoes already made?
They are not....just slice and add them.
Hey anybody who has a oven try to do this flash fried potatoes should taste even better.
Season the potatoes with some salt and pepper before frying.
Hello! May I know how many potatoes are in 5 cups?
It's about 4-5 medium potatoes.
