Description
A delightful comfort food featuring crispy layers of potato and gooey cheddar cheese, perfect for any meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium Russet Potatoes
- 1 cup Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- Fresh Herbs (Chopped Parsley or Chives)
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Wash and scrub the Russet potatoes thoroughly. Slice thinly, about 1/4 inch apart, without cutting all the way through.
- Melt the butter and mix in minced garlic. Drizzle this mixture between the potato slices and over the top, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Place the potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 45-50 minutes, basting halfway through.
- In the last 10-15 minutes, gently push the shredded cheddar into the potato crevices and return to the oven until bubbly and golden.
- Remove from oven, sprinkle with chopped herbs, and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For a vegan option, substitute cheese with non-dairy cheese and butter with olive oil.
