Ingredients

  • 6 medium sized potatoes
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoon flaky salt
  • 2 tablespoon harissa paste
  • 2 tablespoon dark honey
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 large clove of garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
  • 40 g feta crumbled

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 200C | 396F and line a baking tray.
  2. 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.

  3. 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
  4. 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
  5. Remove the potatoes from the oven, and turn down the heat to 170C | 325F.
  6. 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
  7. Bake the potatoes for another 10 minutes until the glaze is sticky and has darkened.
