Hasselback potatoes with garlic and rosemary

  • 2h
    • Preparation 20 min
    • Cooking 1h 40m

Ingredients

4 People
  • For the potatoes:
  • 1 kg Waxy potatoes
  • 4 tbsp. Olive oil
  • 8 Garlic, thinly sliced
  • 6 Springs of rosemary
  • Grated pecorino cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • For dipping:
  • 500 g Low-fat quark
  • 200 g Natural yoghurt, 0.1 % fat
  • 100 g Sour cream
  • 1 Lime
  • 1 Garlic (large), finely chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Paprika powder or chili powder
  • 10 tsp. Chopped herbs (parsley, chives, dill)
  • 1 Onion, finely diced

Preparation

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 220 °C top/bottom heat and brush the base of a baking dish with a little olive oil.
tbsp. Olive oil
Step 2
Wash the potatoes thoroughly, including the skin, and dry them. Now cut the prepared potatoes evenly with a sharp knife, but do not cut through. The easiest way to fan the potatoes is to place them between two wooden spoon handles or kebab skewers. These will slow down the slicing knife in time.

Step 3
Then insert the garlic with a few rosemary leaves between the potato fans and refine with pecorino to taste.

Step 4
Place the Hasselback potatoes next to each other in the prepared baking dish and brush with 1-2 tbsp olive oil.
Step 5
Bake for about 35 minutes until the potatoes start to split. Remove the potatoes from the oven and brush with the remaining tablespoon of oil. Then place back in the oven for a further 60-70 minutes. The optimum baking time depends on the size of the potatoes - large ones take longer and smaller ones cook more quickly.
Step 6
Mix the yogurt, low-fat quark and sour cream and add the lime juice. Fold in the chopped garlic, diced onion, herbs, salt, pepper and paprika powder and leave the mixture to infuse in the fridge.
