6. Repeat layers.
7. Cover and bake about an hour.
8. (I like to cook it a bit longer, about 1 hour
and 15 minutes before uncovering it. ) Test to make sure potatoes are
almost, but not quite, fork tender.
9. Uncover and bake 30 minutes longer.
10. Left over cooked ham layered in the middle makes it almost a one dish meal,
and is a good addition.
