Aunt Bertie's Scalloped Potatoes

Thinly slice enough raw Russet potatoes to fill a baking casserole the size you need. I use a deep corning ware dish. The number of potatoes you use depends on the number of people you are serving, but do not make for fewer than four, as the method won't work. Use Russet potatoes or it won’t turn out right.

Salt the potatoes lightly if desired.

Pour enough heavy cream over the top of the potatoes to come within one inch BELOW the top of the potatoes.

That's it ladies, just two ingredients, potatoes and cream. You'll find that people will swear that you put cheese in them. They come out thick and rich and delicious.

Bake at 350 degrees for 1 to 2 hours, depending on size of dish. They should be crusty brown on top and tender when pierced with a knife.

This recipe is exactly how my Grandmother taught me to make them,

I do add onions to mine. If i don't have heavy cream on hand I have made it with evaporated milk and they came out great.

I have also added chunks of ham if I have it in the house. I like it with the ham too.
