Potato casserole in the oven topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 6 large potatoes
- A pinch of salt
- 220 g bacon slices
- 1 cup of milk
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 55 g unsalted butter
- A pinch of garlic salt
- A pinch of freshly ground black pepper
- 2 cups grated cheddar
Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 200°C. Spray a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
- Peel the potatoes and cut into 2 cm cubes. Place the potatoes in a pressure cooker, add enough water to cover them completely, add salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until very tender, about 5 minutes. If you don't have a pressure cooker, boil the potatoes in a saucepan of water with a pinch of salt until tender, about 20 minutes.
- While the potatoes are cooking, fry the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat until crisp, 8-10 minutes. Drain the bacon on paper towels and, when cool enough, crumble it into small pieces. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the milk, mayonnaise, sour cream, butter, garlic salt, black pepper, and 1 cup of cheese. Beat until thoroughly combined. Drain the potatoes and add them to the mixer bowl. Mix again until smooth.
- Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with crumbled bacon and the remaining 1 cup cheese and bake until the cheese is melted and the casserole is heated through, about 20 minutes.
