Peel and slice potatoes. In a large skillet, heat 1/2 cup
Crisco oil and 4 tablespoons butter. Fry potatoes, brown over medium heat.
Turn only once. While second side of potatoes is browning, beat together in
separate bowl the eggs, cream and dash of garlic powder, onion powder, white
pepper, salt and tarragon. As the potatoes brown, press them down in the
skillet with a large spatula. Add egg mixture, tipping the skillet frequently
to allow the egg mixture to firm. Heat broiler.
When all liquid of egg mixture is firm on top, add slices
of cheese (1/2 cheddar and 1/2 longhorn) to completely cover the top of egg
mixture about 1/4" thick or roughly 8 ounces of cheese. Sprinkle top with
grated Parmesan cheese and broil 2 to 3 minutes on top shelf of oven until
cheese brown. Sprinkle with paprika, slice like a pie and serve with cinnamon
rolls and sausage for a breakfast from Indiana.
