Cómo preparar Baked Celery With Cheese And Ham
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Wash and trim 2 pounds of celery stalks. Cut into 1-inch pieces.
- In a large pot, cover celery with salted water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until tender-crisp, about 15 minutes.
- Drain the celery thoroughly and set aside.
- In a well-greased 2-quart casserole dish, layer half of the cooked celery, followed by 1 cup of diced ham (about 4 ounces), and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Repeat layers with remaining celery, ham, and cheese.
- In a medium skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over low heat. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour until smooth.
- Gradually whisk in 1 cup of chicken broth and ½ cup of heavy cream. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and is smooth.
- Season the sauce with ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
- Pour the creamy sauce evenly over the celery, ham, and cheese layers in the casserole dish.
- Top with ½ cup of breadcrumbs.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
