Follow The Directions

01

Step

Boil the Potatoes (10 minutes): Place potatoes in a large pot, cover with salted water, bring to a boil, and cook until slightly tender.

02

Step

Cool and Peel (1 hour): Drain the potatoes and let them cool until you can handle them. Slide off the skins and refrigerate the peeled potatoes until thoroughly chilled.

03

Step

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

04

Step

Grease Baking Dish: Use 1 tablespoon of butter to generously grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

05

Step

Layer the Casserole: Grate two potatoes into the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle with 1/4 of the minced onion, salt, and pepper. Repeat layering until all ingredients are used.

06

Step

Drizzle and Season: Evenly drizzle melted butter, whipping cream, and half-and-half over the potato mixture. Season with smoked paprika.

07

Step

Bake (30 minutes): Bake in the preheated oven until the top is bubbly and lightly golden.

08

Step

Garnish: Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg to the potato mixture.
Ensure potatoes are completely chilled before grating for the best texture.
Feel free to use a mandoline for even slices if you prefer not to grate the potatoes.
This dish is best served warm.
