Spiced Hasselback Potatoes

I found this recipe at www.seasaltwithfood.com , look at the picture here – this is how they should look like. Potatoes came out very tasty and made a really good lunch. It is best to use small salad potatoes for this recipe. Also, use a wooden spoon to facilitate cutting the potatoes to an even depth.

Ingredients:

  • 1 Bag (800 g) small potatos, scrubbed
  • ½ tsp Ground Ginger
  • ½ tsp Ground Turmeric
  • 1 tsp Cayenne Pepper
  • 1 tsp Cumin Seeds
  • 1 tsp Coarse Sea Salt + extra for eating
  • 3 Tbsp Olive Oil


Preheat the oven to 200˚C.

Place the potato on a wooden spoon, flat side down. Start from one end of the potato and cut all the way until the knife touches the spoon, at about 3 to 4 mm intervals.

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground ginger, turmeric, cayenne pepper, cumin seeds, sea salt and oil. Toss in the potatoes and marinate for about 20 minutes.

Arrange potatoes in a baking tray and bake in the oven for about 25 to 30 minutes or until the potatoes turn slightly crispy on the outside and the flesh is soft.
