Waldviertel Potato Muffins with Mountain Cheese

Preheat the oven to 190 °C top/bottom heat. Thoroughly grease a muffin tin with a little softened unsalted butter and lightly dust with a tablespoon of breadcrumbs.

Peel the floury potatoes and grate medium-fine using a vegetable grater. Squeeze firmly in a clean kitchen towel to remove excess liquid. Cut the fresh chives into fine rings.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs with the sour cream, fine salt, freshly ground black pepper, and a good pinch of ground nutmeg until smooth. Melt the remaining unsalted butter and stir it in.
