How to Make Pommes Matiere Old Fashioned Hash Browns

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel and coarsely chop the potatoes into roughly 1-inch pieces. (Alternatively, you can boil the potatoes until slightly tender before proceeding).
  3. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
  4. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe omelet pan or cast iron skillet over medium heat.
  5. Add the potatoes to the skillet, spreading them out in an even layer. Press gently to ensure even cooking.
  6. Cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the underside is nicely browned and crispy.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is starting to brown.
  8. Carefully remove the skillet from the oven. Using a spatula, gently flip the hash browns onto a serving dish.
  9. Spread sour cream evenly over the top of the hash browns.
  10. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
  11. Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the top is golden brown. Watch closely to prevent burning.
  12. Garnish with fresh chives and serve immediately in wedges.
