How to Make Sour Cream Potato Casserole

  3. Grease a 6-cup baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter.
  4. Layer half of the sliced potatoes in the prepared baking dish.

  7. Pour the sour cream mixture evenly over the potatoes in the baking dish.
  8. Layer the remaining potato slices on top of the sour cream mixture.
