How to cook deliciously - Tuscan Cheese Potato Bake

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 3-quart baking dish.

Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Saute onion, garlic, and thyme in hot butter until onion is tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk flour, salt, and black pepper into onion mixture.

Gradually whisk milk and cream into onion mixture; bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer until sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
