Invented in 1953 at the Hasselbacken restaurant in Stockholm, these fan-sliced potatoes are a true classic. Tender on the inside and crisp on the outside, they’re elevated with garlic-rosemary infused olive oil, melted butter, and freshly grated Parmesan. A simple yet elegant side dish that never fails to impress.

Ingredients

  • 4 large Russet potatoes (long ones work best)

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan

  • 2 tbsp butter

  • Fleur de sel & pepper


Infused olive oil

  • ¼ cup olive oil

  • 2 garlic cloves

  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary

For serving

  • Drizzle of Balsamumm Original


Preparation

In a small saucepan, heat olive oil with garlic and rosemary for 3 minutes, until garlic turns golden. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 350 °F (180 °C).

Slice a thin piece off the bottom of each potato to create a flat base. Place wooden spoons or chopsticks on each side and cut thin slices (¼ inch), stopping at the guides so potatoes stay intact.

Arrange on a foil-lined baking sheet, drizzle with a little infused oil, season with salt and pepper, and bake 1 h.
