Hasselback Potatoes With Sage And Parmesan Recipes

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.

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:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Make deep cuts into each potato, 1/4 inch apart, without completely cutting through. Place shallots in each cut (using about half the shallots) and season with salt and pepper. Arrange potatoes, cut sides down, in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish; dot with 2 tablespoons butter. Scatter remaining shallots around potatoes.
• Tightly cover dish with foil and bake until potatoes are tender, about 40 minutes, flipping halfway through.
• Uncover and bake 15 minutes. Meanwhile, combine sage and remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Increase oven temperature to 450 degrees. Top potatoes with sage butter; scoop up loose shallots and divide among potatoes, then bake until golden and crisp, 10 to 15 minutes more.

ROSEMARY-GARLIC HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. In large bowl, stir together butter, oil, chopped rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper.
• Add potato slices to butter mixture; toss to thoroughly coat slices. Pick up potatoes by the handful, and place slices 1 on top of another, forming a small stack. Place potato stack on its side in ungreased 8-inch square (2-quart) baking dish. Continue making small stacks with remaining potatoes and arranging them side-by-side in dish to form 3 rows of tightly packed stacked slices. Scrape bowl for any remaining butter mixture, and spread over potatoes.
• Bake 1 hour. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake 15 to 20 minutes longer or until potatoes are fork-tender and golden brown on top. Garnish with sprigs of fresh rosemary. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

HASSELBACK POTATOES WITH SAGE AND PARMESAN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200C (180C fan forced).
• Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
• To make each potato sit flat, trim and piece from each (to allow it to sit flat) and using a small sharp knife, cut thin slits in top of potatoes at 3mm intervals, being careful not to cut all the way through (I put a wooden spoon either side of the potato to prevent this happening).
• Place the potatoes, cut side up, on prepared tray and brush with oil and sprinkle with salt, sage and parmesan and bake for 1 hour or until golden and tender.
