Accordion Potatoes Recipe - Cooking Index
6 | Baking potatoes - (2 lbs total) - scrubbed | |
2 tablespoons | 30ml | Olive oil |
1/2 tablespoon | 7.5ml | Sea salt |
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Fresh rosemary |
Shredded Cheddar cheese - (optional) |
Heat the oven to 400 degrees.
Put a potato on a cutting board and lay a wooden spoon next to it. Cut 8 or 10 slices down through the potato until the knife reaches the spoon handle; this will leave the base of the potato intact. Repeat with all potatoes.
Place the potatoes in a roasting pan, drizzle with the oil and sprinkle with the salt. Place a sprig of rosemary between each slice. Bake until tender, 40 or 50 minutes.
For serving, remove the rosemary springs and replace with fresh ones, or sprinkle with shredded cheese.
