Crispy Hasselback potatoes are one of the best ways of cooking and enjoying potatoes. Each baked slice of the potato is soaked with delicious flavours from garlic, salt and pepper. Each bite is buttery and super delicious. It is truly a perfect side for every main dish.
Prepare the baking tray by spraying it with a cooking spray or lining it with a parchment paper.
Place the potato on a chopping board, holding it in between your thumb and index finger, with a sharp knife carefully slice across the potatoes width-wise (vertically) at about 4mm interval. Make sure not to cut it all the way through. You can also use chopsticks to hold the potatoes at both ends lengthwise while you cut across it. This would stop it from cutting all the way through.
Place the potatoes on a baking tray
In a small bowl, add olive oil, melted butter, garlic paste, salt and pepper and mix to combine
Brush the marinade into all over the potato and into the cuts in the potatoes. Place in the oven and bake for 40 minutes. remove from the oven and baste with more garlic butter mixture, return into the oven and continue to bake for another 15 to 20 minutes or it is well done and crispy around the edges.
