Scalloped Potatoes With Fresh Green Beans Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter an 8 by 8-inch covered baking dish.
• 2. In a large soup pot, combine the potatoes, cream, garlic, thyme, salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook until the cream is slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Stir in the green beans and carefully transfer the mixture to the baking dish. Cover and bake 30 minutes.
• 3. Uncover and continue to bake until the cream is bubbling and the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes longer. Increase the oven temperature to 400°F., scatter the gruyere and bacon over the top and bake until the cheese is melted and golden, 10 to 15 minutes longer. Remove the casserole from the oven and let rest for 20 minutes. Sprinkle with the crispy onions and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 2-quart casserole with shortening or cooking spray.
• In 2-quart saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Cook onion in butter about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Stir in flour, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until smooth and bubbly; remove from heat. Stir in milk. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute.
• Spread potatoes in casserole. Pour sauce over potatoes. Cut remaining 1 tablespoon butter into small pieces; sprinkle over potatoes.
• Cover; bake 30 minutes. Uncover; bake 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes longer or until potatoes are tender. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes before serving (sauce thickens as it stands).

Steps:

• Place a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the vegetable oil. Spread the ham in the skillet in a thin layer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until it turns brown and crispy. Remove half of the ham shards from the skillet and place on a paper-towel lined plate. Leave the remaining ham and any fat that has rendered in the skillet.
• Add the green beans, chicken stock, pepper and salt to the skillet. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the stock reduces and darkens in color and the beans are soft but hold their shape, about 30 minutes. Pour into a serving platter and sprinkle with the reserved crispy ham.

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium-high heat combine potatoes, green beans, thyme, pepper, Worcestershire sauce and 3/4 cup of broth. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer 15 to 20 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
• In a small bowl blend remaining broth and cornstarch. Stir in parsley; add to potato mixture. Cook, stirring, until bubbly and thickened.

Steps:

• Wash beans thoroughly. Snap off ends and remove strings.
• Break into 2 inch pieces.
• Peel potatoes and cut in half.
• In a large pot fry bacon, just until it starts to brown.
• Add the beans and potatoes.
• Cover with water. Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer on medium for about 1 hour.
• Salt and pepper to taste.
• ****I also threw some onions in the pot as well. The onions added a little more flavor.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees
• In a large mixing bowl, stir sauce mix (from the scalloped potatoes mix), half & half, butter, red pepper and paprika. Stir in the potatoes and green beans.
• Transfer to a casserole dish and bake uncovered for about 30 to 40 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
