Mini Hasselback Fries Recipes

MINI HASSELBACK FRIES

Steps:

• Part boil your baby potatoes for about 5 minutes, until they are softened but not totally cooked.
• Drain the potatoes and let them cool down for a while until they aren't too hot to handle.
• Now slice ridges in them which extend about 2/3rds of the way down the potato. With potatoes this size, you will inevitably make some mistakes, cut some in half, lose some skins here and there- that's all just fine. Don't worry about it.
• Now heat the oil in your fryer to 180C / 350F. Submerge the potatoes in oil for 7-8 minutes, until they are super crispy. If you're making a lot, do them in batches- be careful not to crowd the frying basket.

AIR FRYER HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Slice evenly across entire length of each potato to make 1/4-inch or 1/2-inch slices, making sure the knife only cuts through to the bottom 1/2-inch, keeping the bottom of the potato intact.
• Combine butter, olive oil, garlic, and paprika in a small bowl. Brush some of the mixture over each potato and into the slits. Season with salt and pepper.
• Place potatoes in the air fryer basket and cook for 15 minutes. Brushing the potatoes again with butter mixture, making sure to get it down into the fanned out slices, to ensure the potatoes will not be dry. Cook until potatoes are cooked through, about 15 minutes more.
• Remove potatoes from the basket and brush with any remaining butter mixture. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
