| 1. |
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
(200 degrees C). Butter a 1 quart casserole dish. |
| 2. |
Layer 1/2 of the potatoes into
bottom of the prepared casserole dish. Top with the onion, and add the
remaining potatoes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. |
| 3. |
In a medium-size saucepan,
melt butter over medium heat. Mix in the flour and salt, and stir
constantly with a whisk for one minute. Stir in milk. Cook until mixture
has thickened. Stir in cheese all at once, and continue stirring until
melted, about 30 to 60 seconds. Pour cheese over the potatoes, and cover
the dish with aluminum foil. |
| 4. |
Bake 1 1/2 hours in the
preheated oven. |

| Note: I
microwaved the peeled potatoes for one minute prior to slicing... not sure
that this made a difference. |
