Hasselback potatoes are one of our favourite ways to enjoy the humble spud. This delicious Swedish recipe involves slicing the potato into thin slices across the way, without carving all the way through, so that when baked you get beautifully fanned out layers of crisp potato. Melted butter and a Parmesan sprinkle over the top give them a final hit of flavour and add to the gorgeous crunchy texture to create something really special. Somewhere between a roast potato and a jacket potato we think hasselbacks go well with most dinners. Use them as a Sunday roast alternative to impress family and friends or serve them up with some grilled fish for a healthier twist on fish and chips (you could even hold the butter and cheese if you're feeling particularly virtuous. They take around an hour to cook, but trust us - these cheesy, butter brushed spuds are worth every second of prep. Read on for our easy hasselback recipe to show you just how to make hasselback potatoes (the perfect way!).
Ingredients
