How To Make Easy Scalloped Potatoes

Scalloped potatoes get their decadent flavor from the cream sauce in which the potato slices are cooked. This inviting dish is often confused with au gratin potatoes, which calls for a cheese sauce. But both dishes are equally as delicious. Scalloped potatoes are thinly sliced and layered atop one another in a casserole dish. Cheese is added as a topping on scalloped potatoes and baked to a deep golden brown. This dish is best served warm so the cheese is still wonderfully gooey and the potatoes are piping hot. In this video, Chef Mark will show you how to cook easy scalloped potatoes in just a few steps. For more great cooking demonstration videos, subscribe to the LearnToCookOnline YouTube channel.
