Servings: 8 servings Calories: 280kcal Prep 15 minutes Cooking 1 hour 30 minutes Total Time 1 hour 45 minutes
Pin Recipe Share on Facebook Ingredients US CustomaryMetric1x2x3x▢ 3 tablespoon butter▢ ½ c onion approx ½ small onion (minced)▢ ½ teaspoon turmeric▢ 1 teaspoon garlic powder▢ salt & pepper (to taste)▢ 2 c heavy cream▢ 1 ½ c cheddar cheese (shredded)▢ 4 large russet potatoes (washed and sliced thin, ⅛ inch thickness at most for best results)▢ ½ lb cooked ham (diced)
InstructionsPreheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Butter a 1 to 1 ½ quart casserole dish.Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat, add the minced onion and cook until translucent and soft. Add seasoning: (turmeric, garlic powder, salt & pepper) and stir.Add the heavy cream - or use the same quantity (2 cups) of milk with 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour whisked in to the milk while it is still cold. Whisk frequently until the heavy cream is heated through, usually about 3-4 minutes. Then add shredded cheese and stir until melted. Once the cheese is melted, remove your saucepan from the heat and set aside.In a small frying pan or skillet, sear the diced ham until browning on the sides. Remove from heat and set aside for assembling your au gratin potatoes.Layer your sliced russet potatoes in even layers covering the bottom of the casserole dish. Top with the seared diced ham, then pour your cheddar cheese sauce over the layered potatoes and diced ham.Cover with aluminum foil. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 1 ½ hours. Your au gratin potatoes are done once they are tender when forked. Allow your au gratin potatoes to cool for about 15 minutes before serving. Notes If you use a different size baking dish, if the potatoes are thick-sliced, or if the potatoes are stacked thicker or thinner than they would be in the suggested size dish, your au gratin potatoes with diced ham will have a different cooking time. The aluminum foil can be removed during the last 15-30 minutes of cooking time to brown your au gratin potatoes if desired.
