Hasselback potatoes

Charlotte or Ratte, which are waxy-fleshed and taperingly oval in shape, are best. Cara potatoes, or similar, would be just fine for the job. If you want to peel the potatoes, do, but I find it isn’t necessary, and hasselback potatoes not even desirable!

For US cup measures, use the toggle at the top of the ingredients list. When you’ve cut them all, put the baking tin on the hob with the butter and oil and heat up till sizzling. 40 minutes should be fine for the new potatoes. Transfer to a warmed plate, and serve. I love these potatoes, easy to do but impressive-looking. I often use crushed garlic too, mmmmm.

In classic Hasselback potatoes you put on melted butter and breadcrumbs half way through the cooking time in the oven. Decorate with finely cut parsley when cooked. This is my favourite potato since I was a child! Hi all, I put my potatoes between 2 chop sticks and cut down to them. Fist serious dish cooked in new oven. Truely delicious, will surely make again. They now make them at home but are known in their house as “Jess’s mother’s potatoes” – “patates de la maman de Jess”.

Nice to impress the French for a change. I make this in the summertime with small potatoes with scrubbed skins left on. I’m not sure whether it’s better to hear my guests exclaim at how cute they are, or to plunge straight into the crunchy-soft-inside goodies. I did these guys with Charlotte potatoes and they are amazing.

Hasselback Herbed Garlic Butter Sweet Potatoes Unbelievably versatile, hasselback sweet potatoes can be served with absolutely anything — as a side or as a main on their own. Crispy on the outside and fork-tender on the inside, this is one of the best ways to roast or bake a sweet potato, besides Crispy Wedges of course. Altering this Garlic Butter recipe specifically for these sweet potatoes with some extra added herbs and a hint of lemon, they transformed from the usual into something incredible. They look amazing on the plate, they taste better than they look, and they’re so versatile they go with anything. Chicken, meat, seafood, in a salad, or as a meal on their own.

I never seem to have enough room in my oven for the extra tray, or the time, so I zap them in the microwave wrapped in paper towel and reduce roasting time by half. If you’re short on time and you like your microwave, then you will have hasselback sweet potatoes on your table in less than half an hour. Either way, both versions are just as good as each other. Be careful not to apply too much pressure or you may cut straight through. Prepare the Garlic Butter using this recipe.

Slice the potatoe, but not all the way thru! I only have large sweet potatoes and wondered if I could layer slices in a casserole dish and add the garlic butter.
