Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 5-6 russet potatoes
  • 1 lb carrots
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 Tbsp potato starch
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 3/4  cups water mixed with 2 Tbsp chicken soup mix
  • 1/4 tsp salt (plus more)
  • black pepper
  • paprika
  • 3/4 cup crushed potato chips
  • Fresh dill (optional)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.  Add diced onion and sauté until onions are soft and transparent, around 8-9 minutes.  Clear a small hole in the center of the pan and add the minced garlic. Cook garlic in the center until fragrant, stirring constantly to avoid burning (about 30-60 seconds).
  • Add potato starch to onions and mix well. Add mayonnaise, water, soup powder, and salt, and cook for 2-3 minutes until thickened, stirring constantly.  Remove from flame and set aside.
  • Peel and slice potatoes and carrots into ¼” thick slices.
  • To assemble: Pour a thin layer of sauce into a 8x8 baking dish, covering the bottom of the dish. Place a layer of overlapping potato slices in pan, then sprinkle with a layer of carrots. Top with a layer of sauce.  Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and paprika. Repeat twice, for a total of 3 layers of potatoes, carrots, sauce, and spices.
  • Bake uncovered for 1 hour at 350 degrees.  Remove from oven, add crushed potato chips, and bake for 30 minutes, or until potatoes and carrots are fork-tender.  Garnish with fresh dill if desired.
