Ingredients

Servings
  • 6 large potato about 2 - 2 ½ lbs. of raw potatoes, or about 7 cups of loosely packed cooked and shredded potatoes, red
  • 3 cups cheddar cheese divided, grated, sharp
  • 16 ounces sour cream (about 2 cups total)
  • kosher salt to taste
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • parsley optional garnish, chopped fresh, dash
  • chive
  • paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 1 ½ - 2-quart baking dish or spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and cook potatoes until fork-tender (about 10-15 minutes).
  3. Drain the potatoes and allow them to cool. When cool enough to handle, peel the potatoes and coarsely shred on the large holes of a grater.
  4. Place grated potatoes in a large bowl. Stir in 2 ½ cups of the cheese and all of the sour cream. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Transfer potato mixture to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle remaining ½ cup of cheese on top.
  6. Bake, uncovered, for approximately 25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the potatoes are heated through.
  7. Garnish with parsley, chives, or a dash of paprika just before serving.

Notes

  • Make Ahead Instructions: This casserole is the perfect stress-free option for a big holiday meal because you don't have to worry about last-minute prep when you're busy with everything else on the menu. Simply assemble the casserole as instructed, but do not bake. Cover and refrigerate the dish for up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, allow the dish to sit on the counter at room temperature for about 1 hour before baking in a 350°F oven for 25 minutes. If the dish is still cold when it goes into the oven, you will likely need to increase the baking time to make sure that the potatoes are completely warmed through.
