Categories     Potato     Roast     Healthy

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 large(about 5"long)russet
potatos, scrubbed clean
and dried well
10 tablespoons of unsalted
butter
1/3 cup of freshly grated,
good quality Parmesan
cheese
1/3 cup of "Japanese style"
Panko bread crumbs
1 teaspoon of sea salt
2 tablespoons of olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wash your hands and dry. Pour 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the palm of your hand, rub olive oil over two of the potatos. Repeat with remaining olive oil, rub over remaining two potatos. Place potatos in the "bowl" section of a large serving spoon. Lay the serving spoon with the potato on a cutting board. With a serrated knife, cut slices across each potato about 1/4" apart. The bowl of the serving spoon will prevent you from cutting all the way through the other side of each potato. Note: you will be making these slices across the narrower "sides" of each potato (and not from the longer tip to tip). Finish cutting all four potatos with the slices prepared this way. As the potatos cook, the slices will separate so allow space between each potato. Place prepared potatos on a rimmed cooking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees for 40-45 minutes or until the slices look almost fully cooked. Remove from oven. In separate bowl, melt butter. Add freshly grated parmesan, Panko bread crumbs and sea salt, mix. Place about 1 heaping teaspoon of butter/parmesan/Panko/sea salt mixture between each of the potato slices. Gently push the mixture into the slices, which will fan the accordion shape. When all slices have been filled, return potatos to oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the butter/Parmesan/Panko/sea salt crumbs are lightly browned. Enjoy!
