How to Cook Hasselback Potatoes
- Peel the potatoes (or not!) then place them on a chopping board and, starting from one end, cut almost all the way through cutting from side to side, at about one-eighth inch (3mm to 4 mm) intervals.
- Peel and thinly slice the garlic. Arrange the potatoes in a baking tray and insert the garlic slices between the slits. Scatter some butter on top of each potato, then drizzle the olive oil over. Sprinkle them with coarse sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Bake the potatoes in a preheated moderate oven (Mk 7 - 425ºF - 220ºC) for about 45-60 minutes or until they turn crispy and the flesh is soft. Large potatoes can take up to 1 hour and 10 minutes; 40 minutes should be fine for new potatoes. Test with a fork, or the tip of a knife to see whether the flesh is soft.

If you are serving something that already contains garlic (like Chicken Kiev) you may want to use fresh sage instead of garlic. Just tuck a some torn sage leaves into each slit.
Reviews of Hasselback Potatoes
![]() These were great. They look really good and the taste, with the thin slice of garlic deep in the cuts is perfect for a garlic-loving family like us. I guess you could do them without the garlic, but then you might as well just do a baked potato!! taraH (1 review) |

What can I say? ... Sweet Onion and Potato Gratin - the comfort food of the gods. Perfect dish to accompany just about any grilled meat.

I remember well as a child delighting in the traditional Lancashire Potato Cakes. Not only are they simple and inexpensive, they freeze well too.
