Salmon Scalloped Potatoes
I like potatoes, cheese, and salmon, so I came up with this from a mix of recipes. I made this on 8 Nov 2022, and it is delicious! The family enjoyed this as a side dish with ham steaks, I enjoyed this as a main dish with a side of mixed veggies - excellent comfort meal.
Equipment
- Mandoline
- Baking Pan (9x13 inch)
- Oven
Ingredients
- 5-6 cups sliced potatoes, thinly sliced, mandoline is perfect for this
- 4-5 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- ½ cup onion, diced
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 can salmon, drained, flaked, (15 oz / 425 g)
- 1 can condensed creamy chicken mushroom soup, (10½ oz / 298 g)
- ½ cup milk
- salt and pepper, as desired
Instructions
- Use a mandoline to get perfectly thin and even slices. This was from 4 potatoes.
- Prep the onion and shred the cheese. Set aside ½ to 1 cup of cheese for the final step in baking. It was a big onion so I diced the whole thing and will store in the fridge for use in another recipe in a few days.
- Preheat your oven to 180° C (350° F), grease a 9x13 baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
- Whisk together the soup and milk in mixing bowl and set aside.
- Layer the bottom of the baking dish with half of the potatoes.
- Sprinkle with 1½ tablespoons flour and add salt and black pepper as desired.
- Sprinkle on half the onion, half the salmon, and half the cheese.
- Add the remaining potatoes in a layer. Then the remaining flour, salt and pepper, then the remaining onion, salmon, and ending with cheese.
- Pour the soup mixture over the top
- Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes or until potatoes are tender, this may take longer than 45 minutes depending on the thickness of the potato slices. Remove foil.
- Sprinkle with the reserved cheese.
- Bake uncovered now for another 10 to 15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and starting to brown.
- Serve as a side or a main dish, and enjoy .
Notes
Fair cost per serving as a main dish.
Variants: 1. This would be equally as delicious using ham in place of the salmon.
