Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare a baking dish by greasing it with butter or non-stick spray.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour to create a roux, cooking for about 2 minutes.
Gradually whisk in the milk and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir constantly until the sauce thickens, about 5-6 minutes.
Add the salt and shredded cheese to the sauce, stirring until melted and smooth.
Layer the sliced potatoes and onions in the prepared dish, seasoning with salt and pepper between layers.
Pour the cheese sauce evenly over the potatoes and onions, ensuring they are well-coated.
Cover with foil and bake for about 45 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Let sit for 10 minutes before serving, allowing the dish to set.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
