Italian Spiced Parmesan Hasselback Potatoes

Italian Parmesan Spiced Hasselback Potatoes are a delicious side dish, simple and perfectly spiced, baked and topped with freshly grated Parmesan Cheese.

I like potatoes, anyway, anyhow. Roasted Potatoes, Scalloped Potatoes, a Creamy Potato Soup and even Potatoes disguised as Gnocchi! Although the Italian not so much.

Nor is my husband a great lover of Pasta unless of course it is Baked, as in Lasagna or Gnocchi especially a white sauce variety. And potatoes? Well basically as long as they are Baked or Roasted too.

So when I decided to make an Italian version of the Hasselback Potato he loved it. Especially when I added some grated fontal cheese.

With the American Thanksgiving just around the corner I thought an easy side dish would be perfect. Even if you aren’t celebrating Thanksgiving a yummy side dish never hurt.

When making these Potatoes make sure you don’t cut all the way through, they have to be cut fan like. Brush them with half the  butter and oil mixture and sprinkle generously with some spices including oregano, thyme and rosemary.

Halfway through baking add the rest of the butter mixture and at the very end when the Hasselback Potato is nice and tender,  sprinkle with Parmesan Cheese or even some firm mozzarella or Fontal cheese. Bake until cheese has melted. Delicious. Buon Appetito!
