In a bowl, mix Parmesan Mixture, then spray oil in a 9 x 13\u2033 glass baking dish. Tilt the pan to evenly distribute the sauce across the base.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>:Scatter the Parmesan Mixture over the base with a spoon. Spread out as evenly as possible. Do not touch the sprinkled area once it has been applied. Then press firmly on the sliced side of the potatoes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>:Drizzle or spray a little oil on the tops of the potatoes, then season with salt. Allow to bake for about 35 to 40 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the parmesan crust is golden brown.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 4<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>:Allow to sit for about 5 minutes, then use an egg flip, cut between every 4 or so potatoes (i.e., cutting through the parmesan crust that links each potato together), then scoop up 4 or so potatoes and flip them upside down on a serving tray, so the cheese side is up.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 5<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>:If using, drizzle with Dipping Sauce and top with more green onions if preferred. Serve as a snack or a side dish!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tips and variations:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022Use grated parmesan from the refrigerated section that has a sand-like consistency. If you use the grated parmesan offered in the stores, I will not be held responsible!! The crispiness of shredded parmesan is reduced.<br \/>\n\u2022Use 50g\/1.75 ounce parmesan cheese and a fine grater to make freshly grated parmesan cheese (Microplane). Freshly grated parmesan has a far larger volume than shop-bought parmesan of the same weight, so don\u2019t measure by cups.<br \/>\n\u2022This method works in a metal pan as well, although I find that the potatoes are simpler to remove from glass pans. If you line the pan with baking paper, the crispiness will be compromised.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last weekend, I made this for my family, and my husband couldn\u2019t stop grinning from ear to ear.
