Original recipe serves 10. Current scale: 1x.
I have not tried this one yet, but it is in the list here soon. I am ALWAYS looking for a new way to fix potatoes (my DH and DSS don't eat rice). This looks like it might be a nice change of pace.

Equipment
Oven, 9-inch baking dish, food processor, foil, bowl, whisk
Ingredients
- 2 cups 4% cottage cheese (1 lb.)
- 1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled slightly, 1 stick
- 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
- 3/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 lbs potatoes, 6 medium
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup plain yogurt
Instructions
Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 375º. Butter 9-inch baking dish.
Puree cottage cheese in food processor until as smooth as possible, about 1 minute
Add butter, 1 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoons pepper and blend until combined well.
Peel potatoes and thinly slice (1/4-1/8"), a slicer would be perfect for this.
Spread 1/3 of the potatoes evenly in 1 layer in dish and top with 1/3 (1 scant cup) cottage cheese mixture. Mixture will NOT cover potatoes completely.
Continue layering potatoes and cottage cheese mixture, ending with cottage cheese.
Cover tightly with foil and bake until potatoes are tender, 1-1 1/4 hours.
When potatoes are tender, whisk together eggs, yogurt, remaining salt and pepper in a bowl.
Pour egg mixture evenly over potatoes and bake, uncovered, until custard is set, about 20 minutes.
