Scalloped Potatoes

SCALLOPED POTATOES

5 medium potatoes, peeled or well scrubbed
2 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon salt
Pinch of pepper
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon minced onion (fresh or dried)
1 ½ cups whole milk
1/4 pound chopped ham (option # 1)
1/2 cup peas (option # 2)
Paprika

Preheat oven to 350ยบ.

Peel potatoes, cut in half the long way and slice into 1/8 inch slices. Spread the sliced potatoes (and ham or peas) into a small glass casserole dish - 9” x 9” or
9” x 7”.

Mix together all other ingredients, except butter, and pour over potatoes. Put small pieces of butter on the top of the potatoes. Sprinkle lightly with paprika. Cover with aluminum foil or casserole cover and bake about 1 hour. To see that potatoes are thoroughly cooked, test with a fork in several places.

If you are serving a large group the recipe can be doubled using a 9x13 casserole.
