Steakhouse Potatoes Romanoff

Steakhouse Potatoes Romanoff bakes shredded, chilled russets with sharp white Cheddar, tangy sour cream, and sweet shallots into a fluffy, rich casserole crowned with a golden crust. The contrast of tender potato and browned, cheesy top makes it a standout next to a grilled steak or on a holiday table. Comforting, savory, and elegantly simple.

Steakhouse Potatoes Romanoff
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Wrap each potato in aluminum foil and set them on a baking sheet. Using a small knife, poke holes in the potatoes.

  3. 3

    Bake in the preheated oven until the potatoes are very tender and a knife slides in easily, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Let the potatoes cool to room temperature. Unwrap them and place on a plate. Cover the plate with plastic wrap and refrigerate until fully chilled, 8 hours to overnight.

  5. 5

    Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Butter a casserole dish.

  6. 6

    Shred the potatoes (skins on) into a large bowl with a cheese grater. Add shallots potatoes, salt, white pepper, and cayenne pepper, then toss with two forks until well combined.

  7. 7

    Add Cheddar cheese and mix well. Gently fold in the sour cream until just combined.

  8. 8

    Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, mound it high, then pat it down very lightly.

  9. 9

    Bake in the preheated oven until very hot and the top is browned, 30 to 35 minutes.
