Marbled Potatoes

1 pound red potatoes
1 pound sweet potatoes
2 large scallions, chopped
¼ cup butter
½ cup sour cream or plain yogurt
½ cup whipping cream, whipped
Nutmeg to taste
1 tsp. salt
½ tsp. pepper
¼ cup fresh bread crumbs
2 Tbs. melted butter
2 Tbs. minced fresh parsley

Cook the red potatoes and the sweet potatoes separately in water to cover until tender; drain. Cool slightly and peel. Mash in separate bowls. Saute the scallions in ¼ cup butter in a skillet until tender. Stir half the scallions into each bowl of potatoes. Whisk the sour cream with the whipped cream in a bowl. Fold half gently into each bowl of potatoes. Add half the nutmeg, salt & pepper to each bowl. Layer the potatoes ½ at a time in a greased 1-quart soufflé dish. Swirl with a knife to marbleize. Sprinkle with a mixture of the bread crumbs, melted butter and parsley. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until the topping is golden brown.
