Servings 10 people
Ingredients
- 3 pounds russet or Yukon gold potatoes peeled, sliced 1/8-inch thick
- 5 tablespoons butter 2.5 ounces (or margarine)
- 1/4 cup minced yellow onion
- 2-1/2 tablespoons brown rice flour (I used superfine)
- 1-3/4 cup 2% low-fat milk (or dairy-free milk of choice)
- 1-3/4 cups shredded cheese(s) (can use up to 1/2 cup grated Parmesan) (or dairy-free shreds)
- 3/4 cup full-fat sour cream (or more coconut milk)
- 1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk (or heavy cream)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper (or a little less of black pepper)
- 1-1/2 teaspoons “Organic” Reduced-Sodium Better Than Bouillon Chicken Base (optional)
- ground paprika for sprinkling
Instructions
-
Butter a 10 x 10 x 5, 11 x 7 x 2, or 13 x 9 x 2 casserole dish; set aside.
-
As you slice the potatoes, transfer them to a 3-quart saucepan of cold water. Drain the water and add fresh, cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Lower heat and cook just until tender, about 13 more minutes. Once done, drain and set aside.
-
In a 2-quart saucepan, melt the butter and sauté the onion until tender.
-
Whisk in the flour and cook over low heat for about 3 minutes to give the flour time to soften.
-
In a 3-quart saucepan, heat the milk until hot but not boiling.
-
Stir in the cheese.
-
Once the cheese melts, add the sour cream, coconut milk, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth.
-
Layer one-third of the potatoes in the casserole dish and pour one-third of the sauce over the top. Repeat two more times. Sprinkle the top with paprika. Bake for 20 minutes, uncovered. Increase heat to 4000°F and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until brown on the top.
-
Allow to cool a few minutes prior to serving.
