Hasselback Potatoes With Fromage Fort Recipes

HASSELBACK POTATOES WITH FROMAGE FORT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Stir together the butter, olive oil, chives and some salt and pepper in a small bowl.
• Lay a potato lengthwise between the handles of 2 chopsticks. Slice the potato thinly, using the chopsticks to stop you from slicing all the way through. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.
• Put the potatoes on a baking sheet and brush on the butter mixture, making sure to get in between all the slices. Bake until tender and crisp, 45 to 50 minutes.
• Spread 1 1/2 tablespoons Fromage Fort over top of each and bake until cheese is golden brown and bubbly, an additional 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add cheese, garlic, wine and some salt and pepper to a food processor and blend until smooth.

FABIENNE'S HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Thinly slice each potato several times, stopping just short of cutting all the way through.
• Whisk olive oil, garlic, paprika, oregano, and celery salt together in a bowl; pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the potatoes, seal the bag, and shake to coat completely. Transfer potatoes to a baking dish and reserve oil mixture in a small bowl. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the potatoes.
• Bake potatoes in the preheated oven until layers start to separate and potatoes are slightly tender, about 30 minutes. Brush potatoes with reserved oil mixture, pulling layers apart if they are sticking together. Continue baking until potatoes are crispy on the edges and easily pierced with knife, 30 to 40 minutes more.

This can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
