8 medium-sized potatoes.

50 grams of butter.

Rinse the potatoes thoroughly, keeping the skins on. Put a chopstick on each side of the potato and cut thin slices (3-4 mm thick), but don’t slice all the way through.

Bake for about an hour, spooning the juices over the potatoes every so often. Serve while hot.

Basting regularly during baking gives the potatoes a nice crispy texture.
