Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheesy Steakhouse Potatoes Romanoff.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
While the oven warms up, grab a knife and gently poke holes into each potato; this little step helps steam escape while they bake.
Step 3
Now, wrap each potato snugly in aluminum foil and arrange them on a baking sheet, ready for their oven adventure.
Step 4
Bake those potatoes for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until they’re incredibly tender and a knife glides through them with ease.
Step 5
Once they’re done, let them cool to room temperature.
Step 6
Unwrap the potatoes and place them on a plate, then cover them with plastic wrap and pop them in the fridge to chill completely—ideally for about 8 hours or overnight.
Step 7
When you’re ready to whip up something delicious, preheat your oven again, this time to 425°F (220°C).
Step 8
Grab a buttered casserole dish and set it aside.
Step 9
Keep the skins on those chilled potatoes and use a cheese grater to shred them into a large bowl.
Step 10
Toss in some minced shallots, then sprinkle in kosher salt, white pepper, and a dash of cayenne pepper for a little kick.
Step 11
Use two forks to mix everything together until it’s well combined.
Step 12
Now, stir in the grated Cheddar cheese, mixing thoroughly, and gently fold in the sour cream until just combined—be careful not to overmix, as we want to keep that lovely texture.
Step 13
Transfer your potato mixture into the prepared baking dish, piling it high and giving it a light pat down.
Step 14
Bake in the preheated oven until the dish is piping hot and the top is beautifully browned, which should take about 30 to 35 minutes.
Step 15
Enjoy the delightful aroma filling your kitchen as you await this comforting dish!.
