Ingredients
- 4 large potatoes
- 1 cup of milk
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Step 1: Boil and Mash the Potatoes
Start by peeling the potatoes and cutting them into quarters. Place the potato quarters in a large pot of salted boiling water and cook until tender. This usually takes around 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and transfer them to a bowl. Mash the potatoes using a potato masher or a fork until they are smooth and creamy.
Step 2: Prepare the Soufflé Mixture
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Once well combined, add the mashed potatoes to the mixture and stir until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Step 3: Grease and Coat the Baking Dish
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish with butter or cooking spray to prevent the soufflé from sticking. Sprinkle breadcrumbs all over the greased dish, rotating the dish to evenly coat the sides and bottom.
Step 4: Pour the Mixture into the Baking Dish
Pour the potato soufflé mixture into the prepared baking dish. Smooth the top with a spatula to create an even surface.
Step 5: Bake the Potato Soufflé
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the soufflé is golden brown on top and cooked through. To check if it’s done, insert a toothpick in the middle – if it comes out clean, the soufflé is ready!
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy!
Once baked, remove the potato soufflé from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Cut it into slices or squares and serve warm. This flavorful dish pairs well with a fresh green salad or roasted vegetables. Enjoy your homemade Potato Soufflé!
