Recipe Introduction
Everyone loves potatoes, and this dish is on every potato lovers short list of favorites. As always, the use of milk makes this dish more health conscious, but cream makes it taste better.
List of Ingredients
3 lbs red potatoes
1 cup chicken stock
3/4 cup milk, half and half, or heavy cream
3 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons butter, melted
4 cups sliced mushrooms
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley Recipe
Scrub potatoes. Do not peel. Cut into 1/4 -inch slices (you will need about 6 cups). Do not rinse sliced potatoes (starch will help thicken mixture).
In a 3-quart saucepan, place potatoes, water and bouillon granules. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until partially cooked, stirring occasionally. Add milk, garlic, salt and pepper. Increase heat to medium-high. Bring to a boil and boil for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching. Remove from heat.
In an 11 x 7 x 1 1/2 -inch baking dish, spread 1 tablespoon of the butter or margarine. Layer in order, half of the mushrooms, half of the potatoes with half of the sauce and drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons butter or margarine. Top with remaining mushrooms, then potatoes with sauce. Sprinkle with parsley. Cover with foil.
Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake 20 minutes longer or until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
Serves 6 - 8.
