Lori, your menus always make me wish I was your favorite next door neighbor :)
have to ask
what are Delmonico potatoes ???
I think Delmonico potatoes are potatoes in a white sauce with a yummy cheese and bread crumbs over the top.
Orthodox Easter is still a week away. If I can talk hubby into venturing onto church grounds, he can get a lamb dinner with all the fixings: roasted potatoes, spanikopitas, greenbeans in tomato, Greek salad ....
These Potatoes are the traditional side dish for the Delmonico Steak. This dish was made famous at Delmonico's, the first full service restaurant in the United States.
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:
6 medium potatoes (about 2 cups when cooked and diced)
1 3/4 cups light cream
3/4 cup grated cheddar cheese
1/2 cup buttered bread crumbs
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons flour
salt and pepper to taste
Preparation:
Boil potatoes in lightly salted water until almost done. Drain, peel. and dice. Place in a buttered baking dish. Combine flour and butter in a saucepan over a low heat. Mix into a roux. Slowly add cream, stirring constantly. Simmer until thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Pour over potatoes, toss to coat. Cover with cheddar cheese and sprinkle with bread crumbs. Bake at 400 degrees F. (205 degrees C.) until cheese is golden brown.

This is very similar, however we shred our potatoes, add 1 cup of sour cream and only 1 cup of cream. The crumb topping has 1/2 tsp nutmeg. Oh- and quadruple the recipe! :lol:

:lol:

We like to cook-- and of course eat...

Come on over-- like I said, everyone is always welcome. We'll add another plate and have a great time-- neighbor :wink: :lol:
We didn't do anything special this year, and I felt bad! ...even easter egg hunting at church was canceled due to the severe thunderstorms. :(
Just to give my wife a well deserved day off I have prepared a curry for our Sunday dinner, on Monday we will have probably have a steak pie.
