Preparation

  3. Grate the cooled baked russet potatoes using a box grater or food processor, skin and all.
  4. Combine in a large mixing bowl the sour cream, salt, pepper, and 2 cups of cheddar cheese, along with the sautéed shallot and garlic. Gently fold in the shredded potatoes until just combined.
  5. Lightly pile the potato mixture into your prepared baking dish. Top with the remaining cheddar and parmesan cheese evenly across the surface. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
