Ingredients
- 3 Tablespoons of margarine
- 1 Onion chopped fine
- 3 Tablespoons of flour
- 1/2 Teaspoon of salt
- 1/8 Teaspoon of pepper

Method

- STEP 2Blend in flour, salt and pepper
- STEP 3Blend in milk and microwave uncovered for approx 5 - 7 minutes or until thickened (stir twice during this step)
- STEP 4Cut potatoes in half lengthwise then crosswise into thin slices. Add as many slices to the thickened sauce until you get the consistency you want. I like there to be some sauce so don't always use all of the potatoes. Experience will help you decide in the future

- STEP 6AU GRATIN
- STEP 7Follow the recipe above, stir in at least 1 cup of cheddar cheese to the thickened sauce until melted (taste and add more if you want it cheesy er) then add potatoes and follow the rest of the recipe
