HASSELBACK POTATOES

Ingredients

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 180 ° C (375 ° F).
2. Cut a thin slice at the base of each potato to stabilize them. Insert a full-length skewer about 1/2-inch (1 cm) from the base of the potato to avoid cutting too deep.
3. On each potato, make incisions perpendicular to the skewer 2 mm apart and transfer to a baking sheet.
4. In a bowl, combine the butter, olive oil, shallot, garlic, and Espelette pepper. Brush the potatoes with flavoured butter and bake for about 1 hour until tender.
