Ingredients:

5 potatoes
1000g
1 tbsp olive oil
14g
1 tsp paprika
5g
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
20g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Prepare the Potatoes:
- Wash the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt.
- Place one potato on a cutting board and carefully slice thin, parallel slits about 1/8-inch apart. Make sure not to cut all the way through; each slice should remain connected at the bottom. A helpful tip is to place the potato between two wooden spoons or chopsticks to prevent the knife from going all the way through.
3. Season the Potatoes:
- Place the sliced potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the potatoes, making sure some of it gets between the slices.
- Sprinkle the paprika evenly over the potatoes.
4. Bake the Potatoes:
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.
- Bake for about 45-50 minutes. The potatoes should be tender and the edges crispy.
5. Add the Cheese:
- Remove the potatoes from the oven.
- Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of the potatoes.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, until the Parmesan cheese is melted and slightly golden.
6. Serve:
- Remove from the oven and transfer the potatoes to a serving platter.
- Serve hot, optionally garnished with some fresh herbs like parsley or chives for added flavor and color.

Tips:

- Use a pair of chopsticks or wooden spoons as a guide to avoid cutting all the way through the potatoes.

- Soak the potatoes in cold water for a few minutes after slicing to remove excess starch and ensure crispiness.

- Brush the potatoes with olive oil and paprika mixture at least twice during baking to enhance flavor and texture.

- Sprinkle Parmesan cheese in the last 10 minutes of baking to prevent it from burning.

- Experiment with different herbs and spices like rosemary or garlic powder to customize the flavor profile.
