| Pesto
Scalloped Potatoes
6-8 large Yukon Gold potatoes
1 small container heavy cream
1/2 cup prepared basil pesto
salt & pepper
Lightly scrub the potatoes to
remove any soil. Place in a large pot and cover with water, bring to
a boil and simmer until just fork tender, about 6-8 minutes. Drain
and cool (theses steps are best done the day before or several hours
prior to preparation). When the potatoes are cool slice them into
thin even rounds and layer them into thin even rounds and layer them
into a large buttered oven-baking dish. Whisk the pesto into the
cream and season with salt and pepper and pour over the
potatoes. Cover the potatoes with foil and convection bake at 350
degrees for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and continue cooking for
10-15 minutes longer, until the potatoes are soft and the top is
lightly browned.
