Cooking Steps
a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
b) Place a few potatoes at a time in between two wooden spoon handles on a board. Make slices widthways at 3mm intervals, making sure not to cut the whole way through. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.
c) Pop your hasselbacks onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.
d) When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden and tender, 35-40 mins.
a) Meanwhile, pop the garlic (unpeeled) into a small piece of foil and scrunch to enclose it.
b) Add the garlic parcel to the baking tray and roast in your oven until soft, 10-12 mins.
c) In the meantime, finely chop the chives (use scissors if easier).
d) Once the garlic has roasted and cooled, cut the end with scissors, squeeze it out of the skin and mash with a fork.
e) In a small bowl, combine the roasted garlic, soured cream and chives. Season with pepper and mix well.
a) Grate the cheese.
b) When the potatoes have 10 mins left, sprinkle over the cheese and return to the oven to melt for the remaining time.
c) When ready, pop the cheesy hasselbacks on a sharing plate and serve the ranch style sauce alongside for dipping.
Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The ranch-style dipping sauce is a highlight, with the roasted garlic and chives adding a satisfying depth of flavour.
- Ease of prep: The wooden spoon technique for slicing the potatoes is a clever and simple trick that makes the prep straightforward.
- Suggestions: Allow extra oven time beyond the stated 35–40 minutes, as several cooks found the potatoes needed longer to become fully tender. Adding more garlic or a stronger onion element to the dipping sauce can give it a bit more kick.
- Next-day meals: Portions work well as a sharing side, though some found the quantity modest if serving as a main.
