I really loved this recipe. I have to admit that I was a bit skeptical when I saw milk with flour just stirred in instead of thickening it up on the stove but it worked. It didn't really thicken up on the potatoes, but the result was moist potatoes where the stars were the potatoes and onions, with a smattering of cheese on the top (I used about 1/2 cup of gruyere for 1/2 recipe). If you want a classic thick white sauce, I would cook it on the stove before pouring over the potatoes. And don't skip the beer...it makes the onions taste amazing!
