Can I freeze half of a potato pavé loaf?

The potato pavé recipe involves peeling and thinly slicing russet potatoes. These slices are then rinsed, dried, and tossed with clarified butter and salt. The seasoned potato slices are layered evenly in a greased loaf pan. The loaf is baked at 300°F for two hours, or until a skewer inserts cleanly. After baking, the potato loaf is refrigerated with weights applied to compress it. The question is if one can freeze half of the potato loaf before frying. The fully prepared loaf is then cut into thick slices. These slices are then fried until golden brown and crispy. The final dish is served with finishing salt and crème fraîche. One can assume that it is safe to assume that freezing the loaf after baking and chilling is possible. The goal is to prepare potato pavé in a way that allows for later cooking.
