Ingredients
- 2 lbs. potato $2.40, Yukon gold variety
- 8 oz. ham steak $2.79
- 1 Tbsp neutral cooking oil $0.04, generic cooking oil
- 2 Tbsp butter $0.28, salted
- 1 yellow onion $0.39, small, diced
- 2 cloves garlic $0.16, minced
- 3 Tbsp all-purpose flour $0.06
- ½ cup chicken broth $0.08
- 1 ½ cup milk $0.51, whole
- 1 ½ tsp salt $0.08, divided
- ¼ tsp black pepper $0.02, freshly cracked
- ¼ tsp garlic powder $0.05
- ½ tsp creole seasoning $0.05, Tony Chachere’s brand
- 1 cup cheddar cheese $1.25, sharp, shredded, divided
- 2 green onion $0.30, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Wash, peel, and dice the potatoes. Add the potatoes to a large pot. Cover with water and add 1 tsp salt. Cover the pot and bring the water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-high and allow the potatoes to par-boil for 4 minutes.*
- While the potatoes are boiling, dice the ham into small pieces.
- Once the potatoes have par-boiled for 4 minutes, drain them in a colander.
- After the potatoes have drained, add them to a lightly buttered 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Now add the cooking oil to a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced ham to the skillet and cook, stirring often, until the ham has browned.
- Remove the ham from the skillet and add it to the baking dish with the potatoes.
- In the same skillet, add the butter, diced onion, and minced garlic cloves. Sauté for 2-3 minutes or until the onion is translucent.
- Sprinkle the flour into the skillet with the onion and garlic. Stir and allow the flour to cook for about 2 minutes.
- Now, slowly stir in the chicken broth and milk. Then season the sauce with ½ tsp salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and Creole seasoning. Stir well to fully dissolve the flour. The flour will start to thicken the sauce when it returns to a simmer.
- Add ¼ cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese to the skillet and stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
- Pour the sauce over the potatoes and ham in the baking dish. Carefully mix everything together.
- Now sprinkle the remaining ¾ cup of cheddar cheese on top.
- Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until bubbly around the edges and the cheese is melted. Top with sliced green onions and enjoy!
Notes
- *Make sure you set a timer and drain the potatoes as soon as the time is up to prevent them from over-cooking.
