Hasselback Roasties Recipes

HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 450°F. Line a small baking sheet with foil.
• Place each potato between two small wooden spoons, so that the spoons are running along the LENGTH of the potato. You want to cut across the width of the potato, not cut it length-wise.
• Using a sharp knife,width-wise slice the potato about every 1/8-inch. The wooden spoons are going to stop you from cutting all the way through the potato. The smaller the slices you make, the faster and crispier the potato will be!
• Place the sliced potatoes on the baking sheet and brush them with the vegetable oil, then sprinkle with the sea salt.
• Bake the potatoes for 55 to 60 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and the skin is crispy.
• Remove and place a pat of butter on top of each one, letting it melt and soak in. Sprinkle with parsley to serve!

HASSELBACK ROASTIES

Steps:

• Using a sharp knife, thinly slice each potato about two-thirds through, so the bottom of the potato holds the slices together. One way of doing this is to insert a metal skewer through the length of each potato, close to the base, before slicing. Sit the potato on a chopping board with the skewer nearest the board, then thinly slice down. Pull out the skewer and move on to the next spud.
• Heat the fat in a large roasting tin in the oven for 5 mins, then carefully roll in the potatoes with some sea salt. Roast at 200C/180C fan/ gas 6 along with the turkey for its final 30 mins. When you take the turkey out to rest, increase heat to 220C/200C fan/ gas 7, give the tin a good shake and roast potatoes for a further 30 mins until crisp and cooked through.

CRISPY HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425ºF

ROASTED HASSELBACK POTATOES WITH HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (use a convection oven if you have it). Peel the potatoes. Make 1/8-inch repeated crosswise cuts that go almost all the way through each potato. (Set a chopstick or thin wooden spoon crosswise to your knife next to the potato to keep from cutting through the potato.)
• 2. Heat 2 tablespoons butter in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Turn the potatoes to coat with butter and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook the potatoes until they are golden on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Add 1/3 cup water, bring to a low boil, reduce the heat, cover, and transfer to the oven. Bake the potatoes for 45 minutes.
• 3. Meanwhile, mix the herbs with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Uncover the potatoes, fan the potatoes slightly to separate the slices, and brush evenly with the herb butter. Sprinkle with the Parmesan. Increase the temperature to 450 degrees F and cook uncovered until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
