Scalloped Potatoes are a simple traditional dish that is excellent for any occasion, including Easter dinner, Christmas dinner, Thanksgiving dinner, or even just a Sunday meal.
With a simple homemade cream sauce, potatoes and onions are roasted till soft, golden, and bubbling in this side dish. Potatoes cooked to perfection!
There is nothing more comforting than a creamy side of scalloped potatoes, which can be made with any kind of potatoes, from Oven Roasted to Fried.
They may be stored in the fridge for up to four days and reheated in the microwave, oven, or frying pan!! If you want to save your scalloped potatoes for a longer time, you may easily freeze them.
Almost any casserole dish may be successfully frozen with little know-how and preparation. When preparing scalloped potatoes for a freezer dinner, it is better not to completely cook them all the way through, but rather to leave them a bit undercooked. Next, after they have cooled in the refrigerator, divide them out in the manner in which you choose and wrap them well before placing them in the freezer. To reheat, just defrost the potatoes and resume cooking them until they are soft again!
