Ingredients:
– 1 medium onion, chopped
– 4 tablespoons flour
– 4 tablespoons butter
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
2. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent.
3. Gradually whisk in the flour, stirring constantly to create a roux. Cook for about 1 minute until it’s light golden in color.
4. Slowly add in milk (about 2 cups), stirring continuously until the mixture thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Slice your potatoes thinly and layer them in a greased baking dish.
6. Pour the creamy onion sauce over the potatoes, ensuring they are well covered.
7. Sprinkle cheese (like cheddar, if desired) on top for that gooey, delicious finish.
8. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes.
9. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown.
10. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy every cheesy, buttery bite!
