HB-7626 · Hand-built original
Baby potatoes sliced Hasselback-style, roasted until the fans crisp, then brushed with garlic oil and set over a sour cream and onion dip. Chives and flaky sea salt finish the platter.
Main ingredient: scrubbed
Ingredients
- 2½ lb. baby Yukon Gold, peewee, or new potatoes, scrubbed
- ⅓ cup plus 3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 2¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt
- 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
- 2 garlic cloves, finely grated
- 1 cup sour cream
- ⅓ cup mayonnaise
- 2 Tbsp. finely chopped chives, plus more thinly sliced for serving
- 2 tsp. onion powder
- 2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice
- 1 garlic clove, finely grated
- ¾ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt, plus more
- ½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper, plus more
- Flaky sea salt
Method
- Heat the oven to 425°F with a rack in the lower third, then slice each scrubbed baby potato crosswise at 1/8-inch intervals, resting chopsticks along its long sides so the knife stops about 1/4 inch short of cutting through.
- Toss the cut potatoes in a large bowl with 1/3 cup of the olive oil, the 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon of kosher salt and the teaspoon of black pepper, working the oil down into the slits with your hands.
- Arrange the potatoes cut side up on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet at least 1 inch apart, cover the sheet tightly with foil, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the potatoes are just tender.
- Remove the foil and keep baking the potatoes for 40 to 45 minutes more until their tops fan open golden and crisp.
- Stir the finely grated garlic cloves into the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil and brush that garlic oil over the hot potatoes.
- Whisk the sour cream, mayonnaise, chopped chives, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, grated garlic clove, 3/4 teaspoon of kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper into a dip, spread it across a platter, set the hasselback potatoes on top, and scatter over thinly sliced chives, flaky sea salt and extra pepper.
