Have you heard of these “Hassleback Potatoes”? I’ve been seeing them occasionally on Pinterest for a while now but, to be honest, they looked kind of intimidating! So pretty, delectable even- but I wasn’t sure I wanted to take them on. I am really into easy, simple and QUICK recipes so the fact that these would take an entire hour to cook turned me off for a while.

This week when I saw some as I was flipping through a magazine I took it as a sign that it was time! I decided on my own specially herbed recipe and got cooking. Welllll…. Oh Emmmm Geeee! I can not actually believe it took so long to get these Parmesan Hassleback Potatoes on my plate- where they did not last for long by the way because they were absolutely delicious!!!

Let’s talk potatoes-

The slicing requires a bit of finesse but after a few mishaps I got the hang of it and was well on my way. The biggest thing to remember is not to slice all the way through the potato. In hindsight- you could put the potato between 2 objects (like plates or other utensils perhaps) that would keep the knife from cutting clear through.

They turned out so tasty! I did actually turn my broiler on for the last 2 minutes to get a bit of extra color on the tops but this is completely optional. Careful to set a timer or watch them closely so they don’t burn.
