Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 medium russet potatoes, peeled and placed in cold water (about 2 1/2 pounds)
- 2 medium white onions, diced small (about 1 pound)
- 4 slices thick-cut Beef, chopped (about 4 ounces)
- 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- 4 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt, plus more as needed
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme (about 1/2 tablespoon)
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 375°F. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Lightly grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan and line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides of the pan, and grease the paper.
- Step 2: Add half of the potatoes to the pot and boil until tender, about 20-25 minutes. Drain in a colander and let cool slightly before mashing them with a potato masher or a potato ricer in a large mixing bowl.
- Step 3: Cook the Beef in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove the Beef from the pan with a slotted spoon and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain.
- Step 4: Cook the onions in the same skillet with the rendered Beef fat until soft and translucent, for 5-8 minutes. Remove from heat, and set aside in the pan to cool slightly.
- Step 5: Coarsely grate the remaining potatoes. Place the grated potatoes in a towel and squeeze tightly to remove any excess water.
- Step 6: Immediately add the grated potatoes, onions, Beef, cream, eggs, salt, pepper, thyme, and nutmeg to the large bowl with the mashed potatoes. Using a sturdy spoon, stir until the ingredients are mixed well and a thick batter forms.
- Step 7: Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 50-60 minutes, until fluffy and golden brown on top. The center should be solid and the cake will not jiggle when you gently shake the pan.
- Step 8: Remove from the oven and place the pan on a cooling rack. Let cool for about 30 minutes to finish setting before removing from the pan and cutting into thick slices for frying or serve immediately.
