Instructions

Wash and Dry the potatoes - pls keep the skin !
Mix the butter, garlic, salt, pepper and cilantro into a soft paste.
With a sharp knife cut thin vertical slices from one end to the other, being careful not to cut all the way through. You can place wooden spoons or chopsticks on either side of the potato to keep your knife from slicing through.
Place potatoes on a baking sheet and brush the garlic butter nicely. Stuff in the cheese into some!
bake at 180 Deg for 20 min. Remove from the oven and generously apply the remaining butter mixture( carefully seperate the slices and stuff inbetween) I added grated mozzerella to some potatoes and baked for another 20 min!

Recipe Notes

The skin of the potato adds texture, make sure not to peel it off!

Additional Tips

For extra crispiness, brush the potato slices with melted butter both before and halfway through baking—this helps each layer brown beautifully and adds rich flavor.
If you prefer a spicy kick, tuck thin slices of jalapeño or sprinkle chili flakes between a few of the potato slits before baking.
Try using a mix of cheeses such as sharp cheddar, mozzarella, and a little smoked gouda for a deeper, more complex flavor profile.
Leftover Hasselback potatoes can be sliced and pan-fried the next day to revive their crispiness—serve topped with a fried egg for a savory breakfast upgrade.
