A delicious Garlic Parmesan Accordion Potatoes recipe that has been repopularized by Tiktok. Accordion Potatoes are made with Parmesan and herbs and russet potatoes. Baked on a skewer for a crispy-edged potato.
These potato stacks are perfectly crispy on the outside, and so flavorful and delicious while creating a fun “stack”.
Why This Recipe
Garlic Parmesan Potatoes are hardly anything new and potato stacks as we know them have also been around a while. But recently, The Accordion Potatoes from Tik Tok represent a recent fun way to serve potatoes.
Potatoes always make a great side dish and these fun accordion potatoes are perfect on their own or with the main dish. I think it is fun to serve these with beef kebobs or chicken on a stick.
The potatoes are coated lightly with butter and spices and then dusted with Parmesan cheese for a delicious potato appetizer or snack.
Ingredients For Garlic Parmesan Potatoes
Russet potatoes – Russet potatoes work best for this recipe because they are larger and starch forward, for a nice stack.
Butter – Friends if you have been here before, you know that I always recommend using real butter for a rich taste. Yes you can use margarin if you wish but butter is preferred.
Parmesan – This makes this recipe outstanding. Best to grate it. yourself so you can get a fine cut.
Parsley – Fresh, chopped parsley is best, but if you don’t have it, you can use dried parsley flakes.
Oregano – I use dried oregano flakes for this recipe.
