Try this one although it isn't something that one could eat on a rugular basis:

Whipping Cream Potatoes

Scrub whole potatoes and boil in lightly salted water( about 1-2 medium potatoes per each person). When fork tender, drain, cool then refrigerate overnight. Peel then shread the potatoes on the large side of the grater. Layer the grated potatoes (into a large baking dish) with a sprinkle of salt on each layer. You will need about 3 cups of heavy cream, or enoough to fill the baking dish 3/4 of the way- pour over the potatoes. Bake in the oven at 350° about 45 minutes or just until the top starts to lightly brown. Jan

And this goes very well with deer meat (venison), pepper sauce, broccoli and a Rioja Faustino I Gran Reserva '94

If you serve this I would like to be invited. I won't eat much. I'll just have the Rioja. <slurp>

I'm going to a Julefrokost (Christmas-"lunch") tomorrow and my job is to make the curly kale. I'll see if I can get the sugared potatoes as well and measure the things I use.
