The Flavors Of French Onion Soup

A packet of dry onion soup mix and a sliced onion add tons of onion flavor to these potatoes. Melted swiss and mozzarella cheese on top are like the delicious layer of cheese on top of French Onion Soup. The cheese gets a little browned and crispy around the edges. So delicious.

Beef Broth

The potatoes first get baked in a covered casserole dish with melted butter and beef broth until partially soft, about 30 minutes. Then they are baked uncovered for another 30 minutes. This allows some of the beef broth to evaporate and wonderfully concentrates the flavors. They should be stirred once during this time to make sure they cook evenly and don’t burn around the sides of the baking dish.

Add Cheese

The final step is to add shredded swiss cheese and mozzarella cheese on top and return to the oven until the cheese is melted. If you want the cheese to get really golden, you can turn the broiler on for a few minutes.

Type Of Potatoes To Use

Russet potatoes work best for this recipe. Because of their high starch content, they get crispy on the outside.
