Method
Preheat your oven to 200C | 396F and line a baking tray.
Wash your potatoes, then slice them thinly but not all the way down, so the potatoes stay intact. It can be useful to place a skewer of chopstick on either side of the potato when cutting so that your knife doesn’t go all the way through.
6 medium sized potatoes
Place the potatoes on your baking tray and brush them with the olive oil. Sprinkle over your flaky salt, and bake the potatoes for 50 - 60 minutes. If they begin to burn on the tops, wrap a sheet of foil over the potatoes.
2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tsp flaky salt
When the potatoes are almost done, mix together the harissa paste, honey, lemon juice, seasonings, and minced garlic in a bowl.
2 tbsp harissa paste, 2 tbsp dark honey, 1 lemon, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp cumin, 1 large clove of garlic, 1 tsp red chili flakes
Remove the potatoes from the oven, and turn down the heat to 170C | 325F.
Brush the potatoes with the harissa mixture, trying to get the sauce between the potato slices too. Sprinkle over the feta cheese.
40 g feta
Bake the potatoes for another 10 minutes until the glaze is sticky and has darkened.
