Creamed Potatoes My Favorite Recipes

Steps:

• 1. In a large saucepan, place potatoes and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and continue cooking until fork tender, about 15 minutes.
• 2. In another saucepan, melt butter. Stir in the flour salt, pepper, nutmeg, until smooth. Gradually stir in the milk. Bring to a boil and cook until thickened, while constantly stirring.
• 3. Drain the potatoes well, place in your serving dish; pour the cream mixture over the potatoes and lightly toss to coat. Sprinkle with fresh parsley. Sometimes I slice a sweet onion and add to the potatoes while they are cooking..adds even more delicious flavor. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a medium casserole dish.
• Layer 1/2 of the potatoes into bottom of the prepared casserole dish. Top with the onion slices, and add the remaining potatoes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• In a medium-size saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Mix in the flour and salt, and stir constantly with a whisk for one minute. Stir in milk. Cook until mixture has thickened. Stir in cheese all at once, and continue stirring until melted, about 30 to 60 seconds. Pour cheese over the potatoes, and cover the dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake 1 1/2 hours in the preheated oven.

Steps:

• Peel and cut the potatoes into pieces that are generally the same size. Bring a large pot of water to a simmer and add the potatoes. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are cooked through, 30 to 35 minutes. (When they're cooked through a fork should easily slide into the potatoes with no resistance, and the potatoes should almost, but not totally, fall apart.)
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Drain the potatoes thoroughly in a large colander. Place them back into the dry pot and put the pot on the stove. Mash the potatoes over low heat, allowing all the steam to escape before adding in all the other ingredients.
• Turn off the heat and add the butter, cream cheese and about 1/2 cup of half-and-half. Mash, mash, mash! Next, add about 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Stir well, and then taste and add more half-and-half, seasoning salt and pepper if needed.
