How to make Hasselback potatoes with chorizo, cheese and bacon?
I am a big fan of straightforward recipes, something that everybody can make. Even a beginner. This dish is one of this kind.
First, you need to make sure all potatoes are similar size. It will help potatoes to cook evenly.
Second, it is important to slice potatoes as thinly as possible without cutting all the way through a potato. Placing potato between two chopsticks or skewers will help.
Third, brushing a generous amount of melted butter will help potatoes to roast beautifully.
Fourth, do not be shy on chorizo, cheese and pancetta. I went for spicy chorizo and Jack cheese but you can add any you wish. I also added some random tomatoes on top, just pretend that this dish is healthy 🙂
