    Fun and delicious, these Hasselback Mini Potatoes are a fun side dish for any meal. They're like tater tots for grown ups :)

    It's always a challenge to find new ways to enjoy potatoes. I love these hasselback mini potatoes and their crispy outsides and tender insides.

    Cook's Notes

    Probably the first thing you're wondering is if cutting a bunch of little potatoes hasselback style is a painful, tedious, time consuming undertaking. I'm here to assure you it isn't. At all. See my trick to quickly and easily cut hasselback potatoes in this video how-to ...

    How to easily cut Hasselback Potatoes

    Chopsticks are the perfect thing to use as a guide for cutting hasselback potatoes. Be sure to keep your knife level and parallel to your cutting surface as you cut.

    No fresh thyme? You could also use fresh rosemary for these!

    When shopping for your mini potatoes, look for the smallest ones you can find and best if no matter what size, they are mostly in the same size range, to ensure even cooking.

    Change it Up!

    Change up your potatoes by adding some spice to the mix. Paprika would be nice and pretty. Cayenne would be great for some heat. Or dig out some fun spice blends, like tex-mex, chipotle chili etc.

    Pair your fun, little potatoes with a delicious dip. Ranch, sour cream and chive or anything that pairs well with potatoes (and that's just about anything! :)

    Cook Time 1 hr
    Total Time 1 hr 10 mins
    Course Side Dish
    Servings 4 servings

    Ingredients
     

    • 2 lbs. mini potatoes
    • 2 Tbsp olive oil
    • 1 tsp flaked salt
    • Freshly ground pepper
    • 1/2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
    • 6 cloves garlic, peeled and lightly smashed with the back of a knife
    • Fresh thyme sprigs
    Prevent screen from going dark

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 425F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
    • Cut mini potatoes hasselback style, by making thin slices in the potatoes, cutting almost, but not all the way through the potato. *Tip: Use two chopsticks placed on either side of the mini potato as a cutting guide to prevent cutting all the way through the potatoes!
    • Place hasselbacked potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with flaked salt. Add some freshly ground pepper and the fresh thyme leaves. Toss to combine and coat the potatoes.
    • Arrange coated potatoes in an even layer, cut side up, on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove from oven. Add garlic cloves and fresh thyme sprigs. Return to oven and roast an additional 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.

        Hi Paola, I feel like these are at their best at least a tiny bit warm. They won't need to be hot from the oven, but re-heated a bit to soften would be best probably.

      Perfect finger licking kind of beer snacking, especially with the occasional roasted garlic clove here and there. Love the thyme too:) Cheers!

      Terrific potato recipe and I love the tutorial. I'm going to give these a try - they'd be great for any holiday gathering or a Sunday supper :) I still have a pot full of thyme and rosemary - so I can make them both ways!

        Thanks so much, Tricia :) They are lovely with either herb. I go back and forth, depending on what's on hand.
