Scalloped Potatoes or Potato Gratin or Potatoes Anna
I've seen these called all three of the above names. It's an easy recipe because you don't need to measure and can adjust depending on how many you are feeding.
Ingredients
potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
salt and pepper
milk to cover
butter
Instructions
Peel and slice as many potatoes as you want to cook, probably 1 or more per person depending on how much you want leftover. (They're good leftover!).
Butter a shallow baking dish, 9x9 or 9x12 or whatever. Lay the potato slices down in rows, slightly overlapping each until the bottom of the pan is covered. Lightly salt and pepper. Lay another layer of potato slices down, salt and pepper. Repeat as often as you'd like. Pour enough milk in to come to the bottom of the top layer of potatoes. Place dabs of butter on top.
Bake about an hour at 350 (or a bit longer if you have the ham in at 325).
After 30 minutes, carefully slide the pan out and press the potato slices down into the milk if necessary, so they don't get too crisp on top. Finish baking.
