Directions
Bring large pot of water to boiling.
Peel potatoes; thinly slice; place slices in bowl of cold water as you slice.
Drop drained potato slices into boiling water; boil 3 minutes.
Drain; reserve.
Heat oven to 375℉ (190℃).
Coat inside of 12x7x2-inch or other 2½ to 3 quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Stir together ½ cup milk and the flour in medium-size saucepan until smooth.
Stir in remaining 1 cup milk, the half and half, water, vegetable broth powder, thyme, salt and pepper; cook, stirring, over medium heat until sauce thickens and bubbles, about 3 minutes.
Spoon one-third of potatoes into prepared casserole.
Sprinkle with half of the ham and green onion.
Spoon on one-third of sauce.
Repeat layers.
Top layer should be potatoes with remaining sauce poured over all.
Bake, covered, in 375 oven for 30 minutes.
