Baked Ham and
Scalloped Potatoes

This is an easy recipe for scalloped potatoes,
with it’s layers of thinly sliced russet potato,
onion and leftover diced baked ham all baked
in light cream sauce, it's sinfully delicious!

Ingredients:
3 medium russet potatoes,
peeled and thinly sliced
1/2 yellow onion, peeled and thinly sliced
1/2 cup or so cubed leftover ham
1/2 cup plus light cream
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
Salt and pepper to taste
•Chives for garnish (optional)


Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Slice the potatoes rather thinly.
Add a first layer of potatoes
to an ungreased casserole dish.
On top of the first layer of sliced potato,
sprinkle some diced ham and thin slices of onion
and a sprinkle of all-purpose flour, salt and pepper.
Add another layer of potatoes and some more
onion and ham and black pepper on that.
Dot with little cubes of butter
and add just enough light cream
to see some around the edges.
As the potatoes slowly cook,
the potatoes will absorb the cream.
Cover with tin foil or a casserole cover
and put into the oven for about an hour.
Uncover and turn the oven on broil.
Broil for just a few minutes,
then allow the potatoes to stand
for five minutes to set, and serve.
