Time 1h55m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 medium white potatoes
6 qt water
3/4 c whole milk
1/4 c heavy whipping cream
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp white pepper
1 tsp fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
2 Tbsp parmesan cheese, freshly grated
butter (to coat baking dish)
2 Tbsp sliced green onion (for garnish)

Steps:

  • 1. Wash (but do not peel) the potatoes, and quarter them lengthwise (so that, after cooking, they can be grated or sliced into the longest shreds possible). Bring 8 cups of water to a boil and then add the potatoes. Let boil for 10 minutes so that the potatoes are not cooked through. Immediately submerse the hot potatoes into cold water, and let them cool for at least 30 minutes. Grate or slice the potatoes into long strips.
  • 2. Mix together in a bowl the other milk, cream, salt, pepper, parsley, and nutmeg.
  • 3. Preheat a large frying pan over medium heat and then add the potatoes and liquid mixture. Fold them together well but gently, without mashing the potatoes, and cook for 10 minutes, mixing lightly occasionally so that they do not burn. Remove from the stove and fold in 1 tablespoon of the cheese.
  • 4. Transfer the potatoes into a pre-buttered baking dish and arrange evenly. On top, sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon of cheese.
  • 5. Preheat the over to 425°F.
  • 6. Place the uncovered baking dish into the upper-third of the oven, and bake for 6 minutes or until lightly browned. Sprinkle the sliced green onions on top, and serve immediately, while still hot.
