Wash the potatoes to remove any dirt. Place a chopstick or like size stick on both sides of the potato lengthways. Make thin cuts from one end of the potato to the other.
Place the potatoes on a baking sheet covered in parchment. gently pull apart the potato to create space to pour the olive oil. Pour one tablespoon olive oil into the cuts, and dust with za'atar
Bake at 350 degrees for approx. 45 Minutes or until potatoes are soft.
Let cool slightly before serving. Suggest pouring a little more melted butter or oil over the cooked potatoes prior to serving.
