Potatoes - Scalloped

I believe this is one of the first servings that young girls in the south learn to make. There are so many variations of this recipe, but I think you will find this is the basic recipe. I've eaten them prepared with onions and they still taste great so if you are of a mind to experiment... well just go ahead.

5 potatoes, sliced thin
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 cup Pet milk
1 cup hot water
3 tbs all-purpose flour

Make a sauce of milk, hot water and flour. Add salt and pepper. Cook sauce over low heat until thickened, stirring occasionally. Cook potatoes in boiling under tender.

Place a layer of potatoes in bottom of 2 quart baking dish. Sprinkle a layer of grated cheese over potatoes. Add a layer of white sauce. Repeat layers ending with cheese on top.

Bake in preheated 400 degree oven for 30 minutes.

Serves 6.
