Delmonico Potatoes image

This is the original recipe for Delmonico Potatoes, a popular dish served for decades at New York City's famed Delmonico's Restaurant.

Time 1h55m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 medium white potatoes
6 qt water
3/4 c whole milk
1/4 c heavy whipping cream
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp white pepper
1 tsp fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
2 Tbsp parmesan cheese, freshly grated
butter (to coat baking dish)
2 Tbsp sliced green onion (for garnish)

Steps:

  • 1. Wash (but do not peel) the potatoes, and quarter them lengthwise (so that, after cooking, they can be grated or sliced into the longest shreds possible). Bring 8 cups of water to a boil and then add the potatoes. Let boil for 10 minutes so that the potatoes are not cooked through. Immediately submerse the hot potatoes into cold water, and let them cool for at least 30 minutes. Grate or slice the potatoes into long strips.
  • 2. Mix together in a bowl the other milk, cream, salt, pepper, parsley, and nutmeg.
  • 3. Preheat a large frying pan over medium heat and then add the potatoes and liquid mixture. Fold them together well but gently, without mashing the potatoes, and cook for 10 minutes, mixing lightly occasionally so that they do not burn. Remove from the stove and fold in 1 tablespoon of the cheese.
  • 4. Transfer the potatoes into a pre-buttered baking dish and arrange evenly. On top, sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon of cheese.
  • 5. Preheat the over to 425°F.
  • 6. Place the uncovered baking dish into the upper-third of the oven, and bake for 6 minutes or until lightly browned. Sprinkle the sliced green onions on top, and serve immediately, while still hot.

These potatoes are the perfect side dish for any occasion. They're crispy, flavorful, and cheesy. I highly recommend them.

I'm not a fan of cheese, so I made these potatoes without the cheese sauce. They were still really good. I would definitely recommend them to other people who don't like cheese.

These potatoes are so easy to make and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I love that I can make them ahead of time and just pop them in the oven when I'm ready to serve them.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made these potatoes without the bacon. They were still really good. I would definitely recommend them to other vegetarians.

These potatoes were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more salt and pepper next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my potatoes didn't turn out crispy at all. They were still good, but not what I was expecting.

These potatoes were a little too crispy for my taste, but the flavor was still good. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.

Absolutely delicious! The potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The cheese sauce was rich and flavorful. I will definitely be making this dish again.
