Hasselback (twice baked) Potatoes
"These potatoes present really well and are healthier than fries. They have crispy edges with centers as creamy as mashed potatoes. A must try!"
Equipment
- chop sticks
- oven
Ingredients
- 6 large Yukon Gold potatoes
- 1/4 cup olive oil or melted butter
- 1 tablespoon granulated garlic
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Thinly slice each potato several times, stopping just short of cutting all the way through. Rinse the potatoes to remove the starch between the slices. Whisk olive oil, garlic, paprika, and salt together in a bowl; pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the potatoes, seal the bag, and shake to coat completely. Transfer potatoes to a baking dish and reserve oil mixture in a small bowl. Bake potatoes in the preheated oven until layers start to separate and potatoes are slightly tender, about 30 minutes. Brush potatoes with reserved oil mixture, pulling layers apart if they are sticking together. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the potatoes. Continue baking until potatoes are crispy on the edges and easily pierced with knife, 30 to 40 minutes more.

Notes
You might want to place each potato in a large serving spoon or chopsticks and use it as a guide for slicing.
For a richer flavor, leave the potatoes in the seasoned bag overnight.
