Roasted Potato Fans
- 4 medium-sized red or white thin-skinned potatoes, scrubbed (about 1 1/2 lb.)
- 2 Tbs. olive oil
- 1 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 1/2 tsp. sweet paprika, preferably smoked
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Working with 1 potato at a time, cut thin lengthwise sliver off one side so potato lies flat on cutting board.
- Place two chopsticks (or two wooden spoon handles) parallel to each other on cutting board, and place potato lengthwise between them.
- Holding chopsticks against potato, make crosswise cuts through potato, 1/8 inch apart, down to chopsticks (they prevent slicing all the way through potato).
- Place potatoes on baking sheet.
- Pry slices open gently with your fingers, and brush a little oil between each slice.
- Mix salt and paprika in small cup.
- Sprinkle potatoes with mixture, pushing slices gently apart to season between slices.
- Bake about 1 hour, or until potatoes are tender and crisp.
- Serve hot, topped with Portobello-Seitan Hash.
