Ingredients

• 500 grams Potatoes
• 6 large Eggs
• 1 medium Onion
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 120 milliliters Heavy cream
• 120 milliliters Milk
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Parsley
• 1 teaspoon Butter
• 2 tablespoons Breadcrumbs

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round baking dish with butter, and sprinkle breadcrumbs evenly over the base and sides.

Step 2

Peel and thinly slice the potatoes. Dice the onion, and mince the garlic.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes, onion, and garlic. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender but not browned. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 4

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.

Step 5

Gently fold the cooked potato mixture into the egg mixture. Mix in the chopped parsley.

Step 6

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the surface with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the pudding is fully set and golden on top. To test doneness, insert a toothpick in the center—it should come out clean.

Step 8

Let the pudding cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
