Hasselback Potatoes
I’ve always wanted to try Hasselback potatoes and finally made them after seeing them on What Do I Want To Cook Today. This tasty hasselback recipe was extremely easy to make and had very little cleanup. My entire family enjoyed these delicious potatoes and thought they paired well with a juicy steak, roasted tomatoes, and a huge garden salad.
Hasselback Potatoes
Ingredients:
- 3 russet potatoes, scrubbed
- Olive oil
- Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
- Dried basil, to taste
- Garlic cloves, thinly sliced
Serving:
- Butter
- Sour Cream
- Cheddar cheese, shredded
- Chives, snipped
How to Make Hasselback Potatoes:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Place the potato between 2 chopsticks (or wooden spatulas).
Use a sharp knife to cut the potato crosswise into ⅛-inch-thick slices, stopping when the knife reaches the chopsticks so the potato stays intact at the bottom. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.
Season each potato with basil, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper to taste.
Place a thin slice of garlic between each layer.
Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
Bake for 1 hour or until tender.
Serve with butter, sour cream, cheese, and chives, if desired. Enjoy.

Yummy…i never tried any cuisine other than my country…but for the first time….your recipes….tempting me to try…. thank you so much.
This is one of my favorite potato recipes. Hasselbackspotato is a classic swedish potato dish! My father used to make it at home at least once a week.
I am glad I found your blog, many inspirational recipes! Look forward to reading more!
I like the presentation- it is different than how you usually serve potatoes. I may have to give these a try 🙂
A relative needs his potatoes soaked before cooking. I am wondering if these could be cut before soaking? Or maybe would be better to wait to after they have soaked?
I wondered if you have a potato pancake recipe? I haven't seen one on your blog yet but I may be
Michelle,
I have never soaked potatoes so I am not sure what the best answer is.
I don't have any potato pancake recipes but they sound delicious!
Cheers,
