- 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.
