Description
For crispy, golden potatoes, enjoy these hasselback potatoes with lemon and thyme to elevate the flavour.
Ingredients
12–16 baby new potatoes, washed
Maldon sea salt and freshly milled black pepper
handful of fresh thyme, leaves picked
1 Tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
small knob of butter
1 clove garlic, finely crushed
finely grated zest of 1 lemon
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200 °C.
Place the potatoes onto a chopping board and, using a sharp knife, cut small slices at regular intervals, about 2 mm apart, making sure not to cut right through the potato.
Season the potatoes with salt, pepper and thyme.
Heat the olive oil and butter in a frying pan and gently fry the potatoes until well coated and beginning to brown. Add the crushed garlic and lemon zest. Remove from the pan and place onto a roasting tray.
Roast for about 45 minutes or until crispy and golden brown in colour.
