Potato - perfect side dish for any meat or fish dish, but when you have already tried all the options for its preparation, then opt for baked potato spirals in the oven. Amazing view and bright taste will do this vegetable dish a real favorite not only of the everyday table, but also of the solemn one. With a minimum cost of products, the dish will turn out very tasty and beautiful. The first potatoes will be cut unevenly, but over time you will master this skill and your workpieces will be straight "one to one" with even edges. You can use other spices if you wish.

Ingredients

• 2-3 potatoes
• 0.5 tsp vegetable oil
• 3 pinches of salt
• 2 pinches ground paprika
• 1 pinch ground black pepper

Cooking

1. Let's choose rounded, even potatoes without indentations and spoilage. We clean them from the peel, rinse in water. With long wooden skewers, pierce each potato vertically. Here you have to make a little effort, so you do not need to choose large root crops - they are poorly pierced.

2. Then, starting from one side, cut each potato obliquely sharp knife. It is necessary to cut, as it were, diagonally, trying not to fall into the previous cut. Do not worry, the knife will cut to a skewer and will not cut the potatoes in half - the skewer will interfere with it. This is done quickly, however, the first potatoes may not be very attractive in appearance, but then the hand is “stuffed” and the blanks are perfect! After cutting, stick your thumbs in the middle of the cut workpiece and gently pull it along the edges, giving the appearance of a spiral. Try not to break the cut!

3. Sprinkle the blanks with salt, ground black pepper, ground dried paprika and other spices to your liking, sprinkle vegetable oil.

4. Put the blanks in a baking dish, place it in the oven and bake at 180C for about 25-30 minutes, watching the surface vegetable cutting. Check in the middle of the workpiece for readiness by gently piercing with a knife. If they are still hard, then sprinkle hot water and bake another 5-10 minutes. Potatoes will absorb hot water and become more crumbly.

We share with you a photo-recipe potato chips in the microwave. Once Upon a Festival street food I saw original snack from potatoes: the potato was sliced ​​in a spiral and deep-fried on a long wooden skewer. It turned out that these are called "twist" and it is very easy to cook them.

Since deep-frying is not very healthy, I bake potato twist in the microwave, so it turns out just as crispy as deep-fried, but much less greasy.
Suitable for both regular potatoes and sweet potato(sweet potato). We also need a spiral vegetable cutter or spiralizer. You can add spices to your taste.

Ingredients:
- 1 sweet potato,
- 2 tsp olive oil,
- salt to taste.

Recipe with photo step by step:

Wash sweet potatoes or potatoes and peel them. It is better to choose a potato of the correct elongated shape.

Cut the potatoes with a spiral vegetable cutter. You will get a long spiral ribbon of potatoes.

It is convenient if someone holds a wooden stick in the center while cutting, so the potato will be immediately strung on a stick. If there are no helpers, then there is a risk that the potato tape will break.

I got three pieces of chopped potatoes. A whole potato won't fit on one stick anyway, so have multiple servings.

We string the sweet potato on wooden sticks. It will be better to use large diameter sticks, for example, Chinese chopsticks, and not thin skewers, then the twist potato can be turned over. On thin skewers, the potato dangles and scrolls when you try to turn it over the other side.

We straighten the potatoes on a stick so that the spiral does not touch anywhere. We put it on a plate with high sides so that only sticks come into contact with it, and the potatoes do not reach the bottom. If there is no deep plate, then grease its bottom with oil, otherwise the potatoes will simply dry out on the plate.
Salt and sprinkle potatoes evenly olive oil from a kitchen spray bottle.

We send potato spirals to bake in the microwave. The baking time depends on the power, on average 4-7 minutes. From time to time, potatoes need to be taken out and checked, you can turn the spiral over the other side several times.
The main difficulty is that you need to accurately catch the moment when the potatoes have already been baked and become crispy, but still remain soft. A little too much - and the potatoes will become too tough. Of course, when deep-frying, there is no such difficulty, there you just need to wait for the golden color of the potatoes.

Serve the "twist" immediately while it's still hot. Can be sprinkled to taste sweet paprika or dried garlic.

I suggest to try very tasty and original recipe potatoes baked in the oven with a spiral. Spiral potatoes are easy to prepare, but they taste divine, not to mention the look. Ruddy potato spiral, sprinkled with spices, will not leave anyone indifferent. The perfect dish, as for festive feast, as well as for the usual family dinner. Delight your family and friends with these little culinary miracle. So, I’m telling you how to cook potatoes in a spiral at home)))))

Ingredients:

(6 servings)

• 6 pcs. large potatoes
• 6 tsp breadcrumbs
• 2 tsp salt
• 1-2 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp black ground pepper
• 60 gr. butter
• long wooden skewers
• Provence herb seasoning
• grated cheese (optional)

• To cook potatoes in a spiral, we need a fairly large and even oblong-shaped potato. Wash the potatoes thoroughly with a brush, as we will bake them in their skins, but if desired, the potatoes can be peeled.
• Pierce each potato with a wooden stick. To facilitate our work, we lubricate the stick with vegetable oil (thanks to the oil, friction is reduced).

• Now the potatoes should be cut into a spiral. Of course, people have already come up with special machines for this, but in order to cook several potato spirals, such a machine, in general, is not needed, a sharp knife will do just fine.
• So, starting from the edge, cut the potatoes in a spiral. The knife should cut through the potatoes well right up to the very wooden stick, we make the thickness of the spiral 3-4mm. If you make more thickness, then the potato spiral will not stretch well and may break when stretched along the skewer.

• It's okay if the first potato is not very beautiful, the second one will go much faster and better.
• To get potatoes in a spiral, gently stretch the cut potatoes over a wooden stick.

• We coat all potato spirals with melted butter, smear abundantly outside and inside.

• Now let's prepare the spicy topping. Mixing breadcrumbs, salt, pepper and paprika. Do not confuse paprika with red hot pepper seasoning. paprika is a red spice lettuce pepper, it is not bitter, used to give color. The amount of salt and spices should be adjusted to your liking. If you like low-salted and low-peppered, then we reduce the amount of salt and spices.

• Sprinkle each spiral potato on a stick with sprinkles on all sides. Lay out on a baking sheet.

• We put the baking sheet in a well-heated oven. We bake potatoes on skewers for about an hour at a temperature of 200-220 ° C. The time depends on the type of oven, so we look after the potatoes, if necessary, adjust the temperature.

• Very tasty and fragrant potatoes remove from the oven with a spiral. If desired, the skewers can be removed, or you can leave it, it all depends on the intention of the cook)))).

• Immediately, piping hot, sprinkle over the potatoes. provencal herbs, grated cheese and serve. That's all, the potato spiral is ready !!! The deliciousness is indescribable!!! For such a potato, even meat will be superfluous. For lovers special dishes also recommend

Mix the mashed potatoes well, it will turn out to be thick enough in consistency, like dough for eclairs.

Fry the potato spirals golden color over medium heat on both sides.

Put the finished spirals on paper towel and then transfer to a plate and serve. These are so golden and very delicious spirals from mashed potatoes turned out. Serve them deliciously with ketchup or tartar sauce.
