Swedish Ham, Potato, Dill and Cheese Bake

Submitted by fluffernutter

"Leftover ham at the holidays? I share your pain, so I dug this recipe out of a Swedish cookbook. It's wonderful comfort food. You can use from 3 to 6 ham slices."

 

• Ready In: 1hr 30mins
• Ingredients: 10
• Serves: 4-6

ingredients

• 4 slices ham
• dry dill weed
• 3 large potatoes or 8 small potatoes, cooked, peeled, sliced potatoes
• 2 cups milk
• 1 cup half-and-half or 1 cup light cream
• 4 eggs
• 1⁄3 cup grated parmesan cheese
• pepper
• 1 -2 dash nutmeg
• 2 -3 dashes Worcestershire sauce

directions

1. In a 2-quart baking dish (or a rectangular if using 6 ham slices), arrange a single layer of ham (you may have to cut up the slices to fit them). Sprinkle with dill weed. Top with a layer of potatoes, then another layer of ham, sprinkling each with dill weed.
2. Combine milk, half-and-half, eggs, cheese, pepper, nutmeg and Worcestershire sauce and mix well. Pour over the ham and potatoes.
3. Bake at 375°F for 1 hour 15 minutes or until firm. Cool at least 30 minutes, or long enough that the mixture holds together when sliced. Cut into slices and serve.

Yum! This was so easy to assemble and turned out delicious. I'm a big fan of dill, and I will be making this again. I think you could leave out the ham and it would make a great side dish for pork or chicken. Made for PAC Spring 08. Thanks for posting fluffernutter.
