➤ You’ll need :
▢½ cup 1 ounce grated Parmesan cheese
▢½ cup panko bread crumbs
▢2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
▢6 tablespoons unsalted butter cut into 6 pieces
▢Kosher salt
▢Freshly ground black pepper
▢3 pounds yellow or Yukon Gold potatoes peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
▢3½ cups light or heavy cream (see *note)
▢¼ teaspoon baking soda
➤ Step-by-Step Guide to Making it :
Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 375°F. Spray a 13×9-inch casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.
In a small bowl, combine Parmesan, bread crumbs, melted butter and ¼ teaspoon salt; set aside.
Combine potatoes, 3 cups cream, baking soda, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper in a large saucepan or Dutch oven.
Bring to a boil over medium heat and reduce heat to low.
Cook at a bare simmer, stirring often, until potatoes have softened to fork tender but not crumbling, about 25-30 minutes.
Remove from the heat and add remaining ½ cup cream and 6 tablespoons butter. Stir gently until butter has melted, about 1 minute.
Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish and sprinkle evenly with the Parmesan/Panko mixture.
Bake, uncovered, until golden brown and bubbling around edges, 20-30 minutes. Allow to cool 10-15 minutes before serving.
Enjoy!
➤ Becky’s Tips:
- To make this recipe even more delicious, try adding some chopped chives or bacon bits on top.
- If you prefer a smoother texture, you can use a hand mixer instead of a potato masher to mash the potatoes.
- Be careful not to overcook the potatoes as they can become too mushy and lose their flavor.
- For a healthier version of this recipe, try using low-fat milk instead of heavy cream and less butter.
➤Storage:
If you have leftover Parmesan creamed potatoes, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat them, simply microwave them for a few minutes or heat them up in a pan on the stove. If the potatoes have become too dry, you can add a little bit of milk or cream to them before reheating.
In conclusion, Parmesan creamed potatoes are a delicious and easy recipe that can be enjoyed as a side dish or a main course. With a few simple ingredients and some tips from Becky, you can create a flavorful and creamy potato dish that will please your taste buds.
