Fan Potatoes




4-5 small/medium potatoes 
100g butter
200g Parmigiano-Reggiano
whipping cream
sour cream
spring onion
grated cheddar cheese
olive oil





  1. Start by washing potatoes very well.
 



   


    




     2. Then, using a sharp knife, make slices across the potato, being sure to stop before you reach its bottom.











      3. Cut up your butter and Parmesan. Using super cold butter makes it easier to slice and shove in the potato.








4. Next, open the potatoes' crevices and shove the Parmesan and butter, alternating between the tow. Season with salt and pepper.










5.Drizzle a little olive oil on top of the potatoes and they'll be good to go. Bake them at 180-200°C for about 45 minutes to an hour.










6. When they're done baking, you're still few minutes away from cheesy gloriousness.











7. First you have to drizzle the whipping cream atop the potatoes.










8. And then add the shredded cheddar and bake for an addition 10-15 minutes.



9.  And finally, after they're ready, add the sour cream and the chopped spring onions.
