Scallop potato is a delicious dish. Especially if you like creamy cheesiness!
Unfortunately it takes forever to bake a scallop potato. We should know, we've practically starved our kids waiting for the potatoes to cook on several occasions.
We were in a pinch the other day, and wanted potato, but we had had enough roasted potato for the week and wanted something different, but we couldn't wait an hour.
Amanda went searching the web and found a recipe from Taste of Home to make a scallop potato in the microwave in in a bout 25 minutes. Yes that sounds crazy, running the microwave for 25 minutes straight. But don't worry, you run it for 8 minutes at a time, so your potatoes won't become radioactive killer potatoes.
Ingredients
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose gluten free flour (we use Kinnikinnick)
1 to 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 cups milk
1-1/4 cups shredded cheddar cheese
4 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced (we used a mandolin on the thinnest setting)
1/4 cup chopped onion
Directions
