8 large, white skinned potatoes

2 tbsp canola oil

2 tbsp butter, melted

1/3 cup chives, snipped

Salt for seasoning

  • Pre heat the oven to 200 o C .

  • Peel the potatoes and halve length ways. Place one half of a potato, cut side down, on a chopping board. Without cutting all the way through the potato, make thin evenly cut slices at approximately 5 mm intervals. Repeat with the remaining potato halves.

  • Place the potatoes in a bowl and toss gently with the oil.

  • Place potatoes on a baking tray and season with salt. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes, gently turn them after 15 minutes.

  • Remove the potatoes from the oven and turn them sliced side up. Spoon melted butter evenly over the potatoes and sprinkle with chives. Return to the oven for a further 30 minutes.
