Preheat oven to 350*F. In large pot, place potatoes with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, simmer 10-12 minutes or just until potatoes are tender, but not soft. Drain potatoes; cool.
In a saucepan, combine the 3/4 cup water, the sugars, and salt. Bring to a boil, stirring just until sugars are dissolved. Simmer 8 minutes; remove from heat. Stir in lemon juice, grated nutmeg, and 2 Tbsp. butter.
Butter a large shallow glass or ceramic baking dish with remaining butter. Peel potatoes; cut crosswise into 3/4-inch thick slices. Arrange slices in single layer in baking dish. Pour lemon syrup over. Bake in preheated oven 40-5- minutes, basting occasionally, until potatoes are well glazed and begin to caramelize on edges. Remove from oven; cool slightly before serving.
