Hasselback Potatoes
These roast potatoes – a Swedish original – have a lovely crispy crust and are a real
treat. Making them involves slicing into the potato to create slits, but taking care
not to cut right through.
Ingredients
- 6 large potatoes
- 2 tbsp goose fat
- Salt and pepper
- 2 tsp rosemary chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200ºC.
- Place 2 wooden spoons on a board and place a potato in-between the spoons.
- Slice the potatoes into thin slices using the wooden spoons as a stopper so the potatoes stay in one piece once sliced. - The incisions should go about three-quarters of the way down.
- Repeat until all the potatoes are prepared.
- Place the potatoes in a roasting pan, drizzle with goose fat, season with salt nd pepper and sprinkle the rosemary.
- Place in the oven and roast for about 40-45 minutes until cooked through, basting from time to time.
