Hasselback Sweet Potatoes with Garlic and Chilli Oil
"Any kind of roasted or baked potatoes are amazing, but Hasselback potatoes are especially good. Golden, crunchy, buttery, cheesy, it’s the kind of dish where you can’t go wrong. And making a healthy alternative can be tough when everyone knows and loves the original so much. But it wasn’t all that difficult with these Hasselback sweet potatoes, as it is the same principle and there are plenty of great alternatives to butter. The thing I love so much about Hasselback potatoes is that you are just making a baked potato, and flavouring it with herbs, spices, seasoning, fat etc. But the only difference is just slicing through the potato making those incisions. That one simple technique makes all the difference. I like to make the slices quite thin because the thinner, the crispier. But you don’t want to slice the potato so thin that it turns into a crisp so keep that in mind."
