Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt, and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 3

Using a sharp knife, slice each potato thinly, making sure not to cut all the way through. The slices should remain connected at the base of the potato to create a fan-like shape. Tip: Place the potato on a wooden spoon to avoid cutting through the bottom.

Step 4

Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl. Add olive oil, minced garlic, finely chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper to the melted butter. Stir well to combine.

Step 5

Carefully fan out the slices in each potato to expose as much surface area as possible. Use a pastry brush or spoon to evenly coat the potatoes with the butter mixture, ensuring the mixture seeps into the slices.

Step 6

Place the potatoes on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender inside and golden brown on the outside. Baste the potatoes with the remaining butter mixture halfway through cooking for added flavor and crispiness.

Step 7

If using Parmesan cheese, sprinkle it over the potatoes during the last 5 minutes of baking to allow it to melt and form a crispy topping.

Step 8

Remove the potatoes from the oven, let them cool for a few minutes, and serve warm. Garnish with extra rosemary or your favorite herbs for added freshness.
