Description

Ingredients

• 6 Red Potatoes
• Butter to grease the dish
• 1 Large Shallot, sliced
• 2 cloves Garlic, crushed
• 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
• 8 ounces Chive Cream Cheese
• 4 ounces Blue Cheese crumbles
• 2 tablespoons Flour
• 2 cups Cream
• Salt and Pepper

Directions

• Heat your oven to 375 degrees. Butter a 13 x 9 sized casserole dish.
• Thinly slice the potatoes, and place half of the potatoes in the casserole dish, and dust with salt and pepper.
• Heat the olive oil in a skillet, and once it is warm, add the shallot and garlic. Saute for 4 minutes. Then add the flour and cream, and whisk to combine.
• Once the cream is hot, add the cream cheese and half of the blue cheese. Stir to melt.
• Pour half of this mixture over the potatoes in the casserole dish.
• Add the remaining potatoes to the dish, and dust with salt and pepper. Pour the rest of the cheese mixture over the potatoes. Top with the remaining blue cheese.
• Bake for an hour. If necessary, cover with foil to prevent the top of the potatoes from burning (if it is on a lower oven rack it should be ok). Feel free to make this a day ahead of time and reheat. If you reheat it you will want to keep it covered.
