Cheesy scalloped potato bake

I like this version as I'm so lazy to layer potatoes. Just dumping it all in the dish :p


Ingredients:
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 1/2 cups milk
6-7 small/med sized potatoes, peeled and sliced thinly 
2 cups shredded cheese

1. In small bowl, combine flour, salt and pepper.
2. In a big pot, heat the butter and stir in flour mixture.  
3. Then add milk and half and half and stir and cook over medium heat until mixture begins to thicken (about 3 minutes). Remove from heat.
4. Add 1&1/2 cups shredded cheese to the sauce and stir until melted and smooth.
5. Add sliced potatoes and stir well to combine.
6. Pour mixture into a casserole dish
7. Cover with foil and bake at 170 for 35 minutes.
8. Remove from oven, take foil off and sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup cheese over top (or more if you like).
9. Return to oven to bake another 30 minutes or until potatoes are soft, cheese is melted and edges begin to lightly brown.
