Description

Crispy golden parmesan potato stacks deliver layers of cheesy, herbed potato perfection. Delicate slices bake into an irresistible side dish that will delight your dinner table.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 lbs (2.27 kg) Yukon Gold potatoes, medium size, peeled, sliced into inch rounds
  • 3 tbsps Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 4 tbsps (60 ml) butter, melted
  • 2 tbsps parsley, fresh, chopped
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp white pepper, ground

Instructions

  1. Prepare Oven: Preheat oven to 375°F and generously grease 12 muffin wells with butter, ensuring complete surface coverage for effortless potato stack removal.
  2. Flavor Infusion: Combine potato rounds with melted butter and seasonings – Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and white pepper – thoroughly coating each slice to create a flavor-packed base that guarantees maximum taste absorption.
  3. Stack Construction: Layer potato rounds vertically within buttered muffin cavities, carefully pressing each tier to maintain structural stability and create dense, compact potato towers that promise crisp edges and tender interiors.
  4. Roasting Process: Bake potato stacks in preheated oven for approximately 60 minutes, allowing them to transform into golden-brown delicacies with perfectly caramelized edges and luxuriously soft centers that promise a delightful textural experience.
  5. Finishing Touch: Remove potato stacks from oven and let rest briefly to set their form, then garnish with freshly chopped parsley, adding a vibrant green accent and subtle herbaceous complexity to complete the culinary presentation.

Notes

  • Butter Coating Technique: Use a pastry brush to evenly spread melted butter across muffin wells, preventing potato stacks from sticking and ensuring easy removal.
  • Seasoning Pro Tip: Gently massage seasonings into potato rounds to guarantee maximum flavor absorption and even distribution of Parmesan and spices.
  • Stacking Strategy: Press potato layers firmly but carefully to create compact towers that maintain structural integrity during high-heat roasting.
  • Garnish and Serve: Allow potato stacks to rest for 3-5 minutes after baking to set their shape, then immediately garnish with fresh parsley for maximum visual and flavor impact.
