Here’s a rich, comforting Cheesy Scalloped Potato Roll recipe—basically scalloped potatoes turned into a soft, sliceable roll with a creamy, cheesy center.
🥔 Cheesy Scalloped Potato Roll
🧾 Ingredients
For the potato base:
- 4–5 medium potatoes (thinly sliced, about ⅛ inch)
- 2 tbsp butter (melted)
- ½ cup grated cheddar cheese
- Salt & black pepper (to taste)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
For the filling:
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup cream cheese (softened)
- 2 tbsp sour cream (optional, for extra creaminess)
- 1–2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (or coriander)
- Optional: cooked shredded chicken or sautéed veggies
🔪 Instructions
1. Prep the potatoes
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Arrange thin potato slices in overlapping rows to form a rectangle (like a sheet).
- Brush with melted butter.
- Sprinkle salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cheddar cheese evenly on top.
2. Bake the base
- Bake for 25–30 minutes until potatoes are tender and slightly golden.
- Remove from oven and let it cool slightly (so it doesn’t break when rolling).
3. Make the filling
- In a bowl, mix:
- Mozzarella
- Cream cheese
- Sour cream
- Garlic
- Herbs
- Add cooked chicken or veggies if you want a heartier roll.
4. Assemble the roll
- Spread the filling evenly over the baked potato sheet.
- Carefully roll it up tightly using the parchment paper as support (like a Swiss roll).
5. Final bake
- Place the roll seam-side down.
- Bake again for 10–15 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
🍽️ Serving Tips
- Let it rest 5–10 minutes before slicing (helps it hold shape).
- Garnish with extra herbs or a sprinkle of chili flakes.
- Serve with garlic sauce, ketchup, or yogurt dip.
🔥 Variations
- Add spicy twist with green chilies or chili flakes
- Use smoked chicken or beef for deeper flavor
- Mix in spinach for a creamy veggie version
If you want, I can give you a crispy version, air fryer method, or a desi-style spicy version tailored to Pakistani flavors.
