INGREDIENTS
For Casserole
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, or lightly salted
- ¼ cup yellow onion, finely diced
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ cup gluten free flour
- ½ cup evaporated milk
- ¾ cups chicken broth
- 1 ½ cups diced ham, about 8 ounces total
- 4 cups diced potatoes, (Russet) peeled, about ¼ inch
- 4 ounces about 1 cups grated cheddar cheese
- Black pepper to taste
- Optional garnish: chopped fresh parsley
For the top Layer
- 1 cup crushed Corn Flakes cereal (gluten free), about 1 ¾ cups whole cereal before crushing
- 1 tablespoon lightly salted butter, melted
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Grease an 8 x 11-inch baking dish (or 9x9 inch works just fine). Set aside.
- In a large nonstick skillet, add 2 tablespoons of butter and saute onion until softened.
- Slowly add in the gluten-free flour and whisk until you have a roux. Gradually add broth, and milk. Whisk until all combined and thickened.
- Stir in garlic powder, salt and black pepper to taste.
- Follow with ½ cup of cheddar cheese and stir until cheese is incorporated and melted. Remove from heat.
- In a medium bowl combine the potatoes, ham, and pour in the sauce. Transfer to casserole dish.
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 60-65 minutes.
- Toward the end of baking, prepare the cornflakes. In a small bowl, combine roughly crushed Corn Flakes with 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Set aside.
- Remove foil, sprinkle with remaining ½ cup of grated cheese, and top with the buttered Corn Flakes.
- Return to the oven uncovered and bake for another 10-15 more minutes.
- Let the casserole rest for about 10 minutes before serving (the sauce will thicken as it cools). Garnish with fresh parsley just before serving.
