Cooking in a Meat Pot to Eat with Dairy

Question

I want to cook potatoes in a meat pot that was used to cook meat today, and I have cleaned the pot thoroughly. Afterwards, I want to transfer the potatoes to a dairy plate and add cream sauce. Is this allowed?

Answer

For Sephardim, it is initially forbidden unless there is no other option to cook. However, if it has already been cooked, it is permitted to eat with dairy. For Ashkenazim, even if it has already been cooked in a meat pot and there is no other option, it is forbidden to eat with dairy.
