Garlic Herb Hasselback Potatoes
Description
This recipe features baby potatoes scored into thin slices that fan open during roasting without dividing completely. Brushing them with olive oil and melted butter infuses richness and promotes crisping. Fresh garlic heads, parsley, thyme, and lemon wedges tucked among the potatoes impart aromatic flavors and subtle brightness.
Roasting at 350°F for an hour, with periodic basting, develops a golden, crispy exterior balancing the smooth, creamy centers. The herbs and lemon complement the mild garlic scent and buttery base, producing a nuanced savory profile.
Serve these potatoes as an accompaniment to roasted or grilled meats or as part of a vegetable-focused meal. The texture contrast between crisp edges and soft inside provides pleasant mouthfeel diversity.
