Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325ºF (160ºC).
- Microwave the potatoes for 1-1 ½ minutes, then leave in the microwave for a few minutes to cool down and soften. Insert a wooden skewer into the bottom of each potato and gently push it all the way through the top. Working in a spiral motion from one side to the other, hold a sharp, thin knife at an angle and cut in the opposite direction you are turning the skewered potato, cutting all the way down to the skewer. Take your time and work to make thin, even spiral all the way down the potato.
- Gently fan out each potato down the length of the skewer, until you have even gaps between the slices. Brush the melted butter all over the potatoes.
- In a medium bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and salt. Place each skewered potato over the bowl and sprinkle half of the spice mixture over each potato until they are entirely coated. Carefully set the potatoes on a baking pan, letting the skewers rest on sides of the pan so that the potatoes are suspended.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until nicely browned. Garnish with additional Parmesan and parsley. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Selecting the right potatoes: Choose firm, evenly sized potatoes with smooth skin for best results.
- Slicing and preparing potatoes: Cut potatoes into even-sized wedges or slices for uniform cooking. Soak them in cold water for 10-15 minutes to remove excess starch, then pat dry thoroughly before cooking.
- Seasoning and coating: Use a combination of spices, herbs, and seasonings to flavor the potatoes. Paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper are classic choices. For a crispy coating, toss the potatoes with a mixture of olive oil or melted butter, flour, and bread crumbs or panko breadcrumbs.
- Baking temperatures and times: Bake curly potatoes at high temperatures (400-425°F or 200-220°C) for a shorter duration (20-25 minutes) to achieve crispy exteriors and tender interiors. Avoid overcrowding the baking pan to ensure even cooking.
- Flipping and rotating: To ensure even browning, flip the potatoes halfway through the baking time and rotate the pan if necessary. This helps prevent uneven cooking and promotes a golden-brown color.
- Serving suggestions: Curly potatoes can be served as a side dish or snack. Pair them with various dipping sauces such as ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, or ranch dressing. They can also be topped with grated cheese, bacon bits, chives, or sour cream for added flavor and texture.
Conclusion:
Curly potatoes are a versatile and delicious side dish or snack that can be enjoyed on various occasions. With their crispy exterior, tender interior, and customizable seasonings, they are sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Whether you prefer simple or more elaborate recipes, there's a curly potato variation to suit your taste. Experiment with different seasonings, coatings, and dipping sauces to create your perfect curly potato dish.
