EASY HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F. Grease a medium-sized casserole dish with cooking spray; set aside.
• Place potatoes on a large plate. Microwave on high power for 10 minutes.
• After microwaving, allow the potatoes to cool for a few minutes before using a large sharp knife to cut fine slits ¾ of the way through the potatoes about ⅛ inch apart.
• Transfer the potatoes to the prepared baking dish.
• In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and olive oil. Add parmesan cheese, garlic paste, half of the chives, salt, and pepper.
• Brush the butter mixture over the potatoes, gently parting the slices to make sure butter gets down in between. Reserve extra butter mixture.
• Bake the potatoes for 10 minutes. Remove the potatoes from the oven and brush with the rest of the butter mixture and bake for an additional 12 to 15 minutes or until they are crispy on the outside and tender inside.
• Remove from the oven and brush the potatoes with the melted butter in the bottom of the dish. Top with remaining chives and Parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve immediately.

HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Cut potatoes into 1/8 inch slices, cutting only 3/4 through.
• Place cut side up in greased baking dish.
• Brush with butter.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Bake in 375° oven for 45 to 50 minutes, brushing with butter once or twice .
• Mix cheese and bread crumbs.
• When potatoes start to spread, sprinkle with cheese and bread crumbs and then sprinkle with paprika. Bake until tender, 20 to 30 minutes.

HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Peel the potatoes, and place in bowl of cold water to prevent browning. Place potatoes into a large wooden or metal spoon. Using a sharp knife, make slices across the potato the short way about 1/8 to 1/4 inch apart, making sure to cut down to the lip of the spoon, not all the way through the potato. The slices should stay connected at the bottom, and the spoon helps keep the depth even. Return the potato to the bowl of water, and proceed with the remaining potatoes.
• When all of the potatoes are cut, place them cut side up in a shallow baking dish or small roasting pan. Drizzle with half of the butter, then season with salt and pepper.
• Bake for 35 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove from the oven, and drizzle with the remaining butter. Sprinkle Romano cheese and bread crumbs onto the tops of the potatoes, and season with a little more salt and pepper. Return to the oven, and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until nicely browned.

HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Stir together the butter, olive oil, chives and some salt and pepper in a small bowl.
• Place a potato between the handles of 2 wooden spoons or 2 chopsticks. Slice the potato into thin slices, leaving 1/4 inch at the bottom unsliced; the spoon handles will prevent you from slicing the potato all the way through. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.
• Put the potatoes on a baking sheet and brush on the butter mixture, making sure to get in between all the slices. Bake until tender and crisp, 55 to 60 minutes.

CHEESY HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and line a baking sheet with foil.
• In a small saucepot, bring the butter, oil and garlic to a boil over high heat; remove from the heat.
• Using 2 wooden spoons placed on each side of a potato as a guide, cut the potato into thin slices about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick, without cutting through the bottom (the spoons will keep you from cutting all the way through the potato). Repeat with the remaining potatoes. Place the potatoes on the prepared baking sheet and brush each potato with some of the butter mixture, trying to get the butter between the slices. Sprinkle each potato with salt and pepper.
• Bake for 30 minutes, then remove the potatoes from the oven. The potatoes will have started to spread out from cooking and it will be easier to brush each slice with some more of the butter mixture. Put the potatoes back in the oven for an additional 20 minutes.
• Remove the potatoes from the oven again and sprinkle the Parmesan over the top and into the slices. Return to the oven to melt and brown the cheese, an additional 5 minutes. Serve the potatoes immediately.

BAKED HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Place a potato between 2 wooden spoons. Slice potato crosswise at 1/8-inch intervals, cutting until you hit the spoon handles, being careful not to cut all the way through. Repeat with remaining potatoes and transfer to a baking sheet.
• Combine olive oil, garlic, paprika, and salt in a small bowl. Brush mixture over the top and in between the slits of potatoes.
• Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes have fanned out a bit, and are cooked through on the insides but a bit crispy on the outsides, about 45 minutes. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese over top and bake until melted, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Garnish with additional Parmesan and chives.

HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Use a metal skewer and insert through the back of one of the flatter sides of the potato. It should go through most of the potato. Place on a chopping board, skewer-side down, and slice through the potato (be careful not to cut all the way through on both ends). You can also put each potato in-between two handles of wooden spoons, and cut through to the spoon, if this is easier for you. A sharp knife will help to make slices a few mm apart. Remove the skewer and repeat with the remaining potatoes.
• Put the potatoes cut-side up on a shallow baking tray and drizzle over the oil. Rub each potato with your hands to coat well in the oil, getting some in between the slices. Toss in the bashed garlic, rosemary, and season well. Roast for 50 mins - 1 hr until the potatoes are tender throughout and the tops are golden and crisp. Baste with any oil in the pan halfway cooking to get extra crisp potatoes.

• Preheat over 425°F.
• Peel potatoes, if the skin is too tough, otherwise just scrub and rinse them.
• Cut potatoes into thin slices, but NOT all the way through. (Place a handle of a spoon or table knife along-side the potato to prevent the knife from slicing all the way.)
• Put Potatoes in a baking dish; slightly fan out the slices.
• Sprinkle with salt and drizzle with butter.
• Sprinkle with herbs.
• Bake potatoes (425 F) for about 50 minutes.
• Remove from oven.
