This is an impressive spud that would shine at any Sunday roast or make a perfect addition to the Christmas Day dinner plate.

Any potato will do, they all seem to turn out well. Using a wooden spoon as a guide, slice straight down into the potato, but stop just short of cutting all the way through. Make your slices as thick or as thin as you like.

Chef's knife

Baking dish

Instructions

Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
Wash and dry the potatoes.
Scrub the potatoes clean and pat them dry.
Cut parallel slits into each potato, stopping just before you cut through so that the slices stay connected at the bottom of the potato.
Arrange the potatoes in a baking dish.
Brush the potatoes all over with half the butter
Season with salt and pepper.
Bake 30 minutes, then brush with more butter.
The potato layers should be separating at this point in cooking so brush with the butter and get some buttery tastiness into those potatoes.
Bake another 30 to 40 minutes until the crispy on the edges and easily pierced in the middle with a knife.
