Swiss Gratin Potatoes

by

Side dishes are an important part of any great meal. The steak, chicken, pork or whatever may be the star of the show, but it does need a good sidekick to complete the goodness. Enter the Swiss Gratin Potatoes. I {heart} swiss cheese (or mouse cheese as my children call it). Yes it stinks, but it tastes incredible. It is the perfect cheese for these potatoes.

4c. peeled and sliced potatoes
1/4 c. butter
1/4 c. flour
1 c. milk
1 c. heavy cream
1 c. chicken broth
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 c. Swiss cheese, shredded
Layer the potatoes in a 9×13 baking dish. Melt the butter in a saucepan. Stir in the flour. Add milk, cream, & broth, whisking until smooth. Cook till thickened. Add salt & pepper. Pour over the potatoes. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Sprinkle with the cheese and bake another 15 minutes.
