Peel and thinly slice the potatoes. Dice the onion, and mince the garlic.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes, onion, and garlic. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender but not browned. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Gently fold the cooked potato mixture into the egg mixture. Mix in the chopped parsley.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the surface with a spatula.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the pudding is fully set and golden on top. To test doneness, insert a toothpick in the centerβit should come out clean.
Let the pudding cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
