Sweet Potato Gratin

Step 1 of 9

Select SEAR/SAUTE and set to MD:HI. Select START/STOP to begin. Let preheat for 5 minutes.

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups heavy cream, warmed in the microwave
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/4 cup water
3 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut in half, then cut into half-moons 1/4 inch (5/8 cm) thick
1 1/4 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans, or slivered almonds

Step 2 of 9

Add the butter. Once melted, add the flour and stir together until a thick paste forms, about one minute. (The combination of butter and flour is called a Roux). Continue cooking the roux for two minutes, stirring frequently with a rubber-coated whisk. Slowly add the warm cream while continuously whisking so there are no lumps, about 3 minutes. The cream should be thickened.
