The combination of ham and cheese creates a wonderfully smoky flavor. I also love that I can cook an entire meal—vegetable and all—in one standout dish. —Denell Syslo, Fullerton, Nebraska
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter, cubed
- 2 tablespoons chopped onion
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2-1/2 cups whole milk
- 2 cups shredded Swiss cheese, divided
- 2 pounds potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced (about 4 cups)
- 2 cups cubed fully cooked ham
- 2 cups frozen broccoli florets, thawed and patted dry
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°. In a Dutch oven, heat butter over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir until tender, 2-3 minutes. Stir in flour, white pepper and salt until blended; gradually whisk in milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir until thickened, 2 minutes.
- Stir in 1 cup cheese. Reduce heat; cook until cheese is melted (sauce will be thick), 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Add potatoes, ham and broccoli to sauce; stir gently to coat. Transfer to 8 greased 8-oz. ramekins.
- Bake, covered, 40 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake, uncovered, until potatoes are tender and cheese is melted, 20-25 minutes longer.
