The band many Americans consider a one- or two-hit wonder has long found success at home in the Netherlands.All together now: “We’ve got a thing that’s called radar love!”

This rich side dish can occupy the oven for over 2 hours, dirty a slew of pots and baking dishes, and still produce unevenly cooked potatoes in a heavy, curdled sauce. Scalloped potatoes—thinly sliced potatoes layered with cream and baked until they are bubbling and browned—are a classic accompaniment to holiday roasts. But this rich side dish can occupy the oven for over 2 hours, dirty a slew of pots and baking dishes, and still produce unevenly cooked potatoes in a heavy, curdled sauce. We wanted to minimize the oven time and cleanup while turning out layers of tender potatoes and creamy sauce with a nicely browned, cheesy crust. We found the answer to many of these problems in our Dutch oven. We simmered the potatoes briefly in cream on the stovetop to cut down on the baking time; covering the pot held in moisture so the potatoes cooked evenly. Then, instead of transferring the mixture to a baking dish, we simply transferred the Dutch oven to the oven; the pot's well-insulated walls and bottom, along with the dry heat of the oven, ensured that the sauce thickened without curdling and the top began to brown nicely. To finish off the casserole, we put the pot under the broiler to get a bronzed, crisp lid on the potatoes.
