Ingredients

• 4 pieces Medium-sized potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet)
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated (optional)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 3

Place one potato on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, make thin slices across the potato, about 1/8 inch apart, being careful not to cut all the way through. Tip: Place the potato between two wooden spoons or chopsticks to act as a guide and prevent cutting through. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.

Step 4

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the olive oil, minced garlic, thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Place the sliced potatoes on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the butter mixture generously over the tops and between the slices of each potato.

Step 6

Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the edges are golden and crispy and the centers are tender. Halfway through cooking, baste the potatoes with any remaining butter mixture.

Step 7

If using Parmesan cheese, sprinkle it over the potatoes during the last 10 minutes of baking to allow it to melt and crisp up.

Step 8

Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Step 9

Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Hasselback Potatoes as a side dish or snack!
