I can’t seem to get tired of this recipe. It’s been a fixture on my menu lately
Turn the oven on high heat (375°F, 190°C). Warm up a baking pan.
2. While the pan is heated over medium heat, melt the butter. When the flour begins to become a pale golden color, whisk for one or two minutes.
3. Gradually add the milk while constantly whisking. Reduce heat and simmer for sauce thickening.
4. Take it off the fire and season with salt. If using, add shredded strong cheddar cheese and cayenne pepper. Mix until uniform.
Half of the cut potatoes should be layered in the baking dish. Evenly distribute half of the cheese sauce on top.
6. Pour the remaining cheese sauce on top, then add the remaining potatoes for the second layer.
7. Evenly distribute the grated cheese on top.
8. Bake for 45 minutes with the foil on top.
Nine. Take the foil off and bake for another fifteen to twenty minutes, or until the top is brown and somewhat crunchy.
