Recipe: Scalloped Potatoes with Ham

Scalloped Potatoes and Nordic Creamery Ham
From: Sarah - Nordic Creamery

This recipe is one of our family’s favorites. It features our handcrafted Butter and our home grown buttermilk fed pork.

Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons Nordic Creamery Butter
• 1 small onion, finely chopped (1/4 cup)
• 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 5 cups milk
• 6 medium peeled or unpeeled potatoes, thinly sliced (6 cups)
• 1 1/2 cups cubed cooked Nordic Creamery Ham
• 2 tablespoon Nordic Creamery Butter

Directions

1. Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 2-quart casserole with cooking spray.
2. In 2-quart saucepan, melt 6 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Cook onion in butter about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Stir in flour, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until smooth and bubbly; remove from heat. Stir in milk. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute.
3. Mix potatoes and ham in casserole; gently press down so surface is even. Pour sauce over potato mixture. Cut 2 tablespoon butter into small pieces; sprinkle over potatoes.
4. Cover and bake 30 minutes. Uncover and bake 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes longer or until potatoes are tender. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes before serving (sauce thickens as it stands).
5. I often double this recipe in a deep jelly roll size pan.
