How to cook deliciously - Hasselback Potatoes

1 . Stage

Preheat the oven to 425°. On a cutting board, place a potato lengthwise between two chopsticks. Partially slice each potato into ⅛”-thick slices, making sure not to cut all the way through by using the chopsticks as a safety guard. Place cut potatoes on a large baking sheet.

In a small bowl, whisk together oil and garlic. Brush half the garlic oil mixture all over the sliced potatoes, then season each potato with salt and pepper.

3 . Stage

Bake for 30 minutes. Remove potatoes from the oven, then carefully fan out the slices by gently squeezing while twisting the potato with just your index finger and thumb. Brush remaining garlic oil mixture onto the potatoes, making sure to brush in between the slices.

4 . Stage

Continue baking for 40 minutes more, until potatoes are completely tender and the slivered tops have bloomed outward and turned crispy and deeply golden.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine cream cheese with boiling water, whisking until smooth.

6 . Stage
