Ingredients for Hassselback Potatoes

As always, here is a quick overview of the ingredients in our Hasselback Potato. For the complete recipe, just scroll to the bottom of the page.

  • Potatoes: Russet or Idaho potatoes are best for this recipe. The thick flesh of these potatoes becomes ultra crispy, while the inside is light and fluffy.
  • Butter: salted butter is preferred in this recipe.
  • Flavor Makers: you will need fresh garlic, rosemary, parsley, garlic salt, and black pepper.

How do you cut hasselback potatoes?

You can use a hasselback guide to help you make perfect, uniform slices. If you do not have one don’t worry you can easily do this on your own with a good sharp knife and a little patience.

Carefully slice very thin sections of the potato, leaving a 1/2 inch base at the bottom of the potato. You can place two wooden spoons next to your potato to help as a guide so you do not accidentally slice through the potato.

Tips for Crispy Potatoes

  • Take care to make sure you don’t cut your potato too deep- you want all of that delicious herb butter to soak in!
  • I highly recommend using fresh parsley and rosemary- it adds a ton of flavor! But if your herb garden isn’t bringing in much this year, you can use dried spices
  • Check your potatoes after about 15 minutes of cooking- you want to be sure that your potatoes are tender but are not getting overcooked

What should I serve with potatoes?

Honestly, these potatoes go with everything. You really can’t go wrong! You could make these potatoes the star of your dinner and serve with fun sides like Smoked Queso, Avocado Bacon Dip, Pretzel Bites or Whipped Feta Dip. These Hasselback Potatoes would also perfectly compliment Tuna Melt Stuffed Peppers, Air Fryer Hamburgers or One Pan Sausage Cheese Pasta.
