Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons butter + extra for greasing the pan
- 1/3 cup onion diced
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 4 tablespoons whole-wheat flour
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- pepper to taste
- 2 cups cheddar cheese mild, freshly grated
- 1 pound frozen hash browns be sure to buy a brand with only 1 ingredient - potatoes, no need to defrost
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a square baking dish with butter (8 x 8 or 9 x 9 inch) and set aside.
- In a large sauté pan over medium heat melt the butter. Cook the diced onion until it softens but does not brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Throw in the minced garlic and cook while stirring for 1 more minute.
- Turn the heat down to medium low and whisk in the flour. Continuously stir until the flour darkens but is not burnt, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Whisk in the milk, salt, and pepper until it slightly thickens, about 1 minute.
- Turn the heat off and, using a spatula or wooden spoon, stir in the grated cheese until it melts. Fold in the hash browns until evenly coated.
- Transfer to the baking dish being careful to push the thick mixture down on top into one even layer.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes uncovered, and then turn the heat up to broil for 3 to 4 minutes or until the top turns golden brown. Keep a close eye under the broiler so it doesn't burn! Serve warm and enjoy.
Notes
- We recommend organic ingredients when feasible.
