Number Of Ingredients 9

Unsalted butter, for dish
3 tablespoons fine dried bread crumbs
1 cup leftover mashed potatoes
2 large eggs, separated
3 tablespoons heavy cream
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Freshly grated nutmeg

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Butter an 8-inch-long, 1/4-inch-deep oval gratin dish. Coat with bread crumbs, and set the dish aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the potatoes, egg yolks, cream, Parmesan cheese, and garlic until creamy and well combined. Season with salt and pepper, and set the potato mixture aside.
  • Place egg whites and a pinch of salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whip on medium speed until the whites are glossy and stiff.
  • Fold the egg whites into the potato mixture. Transfer mixture to the prepared gratin dish, and bake until golden and puffy, about 40 minutes. Top with nutmeg, and serve.
