Jalapeno Cheddar Gratin Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Cook potatoes in a saucepan of salted boiling water for 10 minutes, drain.
• Heat oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
• Fry potatoes in oil until golden, about 5 minutes.
• Add scallions and jalapeno to skillet, sauté 1 minute, then season with salt and pepper.
• Remove skillet from heat.
• Sprinkle cheese over potatoes.
• Residual heat will melt the cheese.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 425. Cut potatoes into 1/8 inch thick slices. Mix the potatoes, cream, egg one of the jalapeno peppers, thyme, basil, salt and pepper in a bowl. Mix well. Spoon half the potato mixture into an 8 x 8 inch baking dish. Sprinkle with half the cheddar cheese, half the Monterey Jack cheese, and the remaining jalapeno peppers. Layer with remaining potato mixture, remaining cheddar cheese and remaining Monterey Jack cheese. Bake for 1 hour or until potatoes are tender, covering with foil to prevent overbrowning. Add additional cheese for a cheesier flavor. You may substitute Gruyere cheese for the Cheddar cheese and green onions for the jalapeno peppers. Serves 4
