- Drain well and pat dry with kitchen paper.
- Peel garlic and slice thinly.

- Spoon over more hot oil and scatter over the sliced garlic.
- Season to taste.
- Bake for a further 20-25 minutes until crisp and golden.

I have made a very similar recipe called hasselback potatoes. In over to keep from slicing all the way thru I place a wooden spoon handle to the side of the potato and it stops my knife at the same point each time. Kind of hard to describe but I'm sure you get it. Delicious. -
Now these are excellant. every time i make them they disappear before I can get everything else on the table. Very easy to make. Only hard part is getting the full fan effect. But no matter what great recipe, big hit and very easy to make.
