3 tablespoons<\/td>Breadcrumbs(optional)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Method<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1.  Simmer potatoes over medium heat until tender, but still firm.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2.  Drain potatoes, and set on a pan until cool enough to handle.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Peel and cut potatoes into dice approximately \u00bd inch x \u00bd inch in size.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Combine with the mornay sauce.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Brush muffin tins with melted butter<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Spoon potato mixture into muffin pans<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Bake in preheated oven at 350F for about 25 minutes until hot and browned.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Mornay Sauce<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Quantity<\/strong><\/td>Ingredient<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
    2 tablespoons<\/td>Butter<\/td><\/tr>
    3 Tablespoons<\/td>All Purpose Flour<\/td><\/tr>
    2C Litre Milk<\/td>Milk<\/td><\/tr>
    To taste<\/td>Salt & Pepper<\/td><\/tr>
    To taste<\/td>Nutmeg<\/td><\/tr>
    \u00bd Cup<\/td>Grated swiss cheese<\/td><\/tr>
    \u00bc Cup oz<\/td>Grated parmesan cheese<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    METHOD:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Start with a heavy bottom saucepan heated to low heat. Melt the butter in the saucepan.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Add the flour- mixing with a wooden spoon, cooking for one minute while you keep it moving so that it does not stick or burn.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Add milk into the pot, whisking while you pour.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Turn up the heat to medium-high. And whisk constantly, keeping the sauce moving and making sure nothing sticks and burns at the bottom of the pot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Bring the bechamel sauce to a boil and let boil for 1 minute.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Take the sauce off the heat.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    7. Now, you have a basic bechamel sauce to act as a base for your Mornay Sauce.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    8. Add in 1\/4 cup of freshly grated swiss cheese and freshly grated parmesan cheese. Mix the cheese in until it is melted completely.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    9. Mix in a pinch of nutmeg, and add salt and pepper to taste.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    10. Set aside the mornay cheese sauce while you prepare potatoes<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
