We had a bit of a twist on the tradtional “meat & potatoes” dinner last night. Homemade seitan steaks marinated with a paprika and red pepper spice rub, some brocolli roasted in the oven and the gorgeous Hasselback Potato you see in the photo above. I used the recipe from Sea Salt With Food verbatim, so go over there and check it out. I had to increase the time quite a bit though. Perhaps covering them with tinfoil for 30 minutes would help cook the whole potato and then removing it for another 10-15 would allow it to get crispy. Regardless, they were delightful – the garlic really makes them special and the presentation is beautiful. Definitely something to try for a dinner party – and low cost!
