Ingredients
 

For the potatoes:

  • 6 medium sized Potatoes
  • 1 half a teaspoon Onion powder
  • 4 tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil
  • 4 tablespoon Crushed red pepper
  • 1 half a teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 5 Rosemary sprigs
  • 5 Fleur de Sel sea salt

For the herb dip:

  • 150 ml Cream
  • 1 bunch Chives fresh
  • 2 Branches Lemon balm fresh
  • 2 Branches Fresh smooth parsley
  • 3 leaves Borage fresh
  • 1 branch Lovage fresh
  • 1 tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon White wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 500 g Quark 40%

Instructions
 

  • I prepare the herb dip the day before so that it can soak in the fridge overnight.
  • To do this, wash all the herbs and pat them dry again, then cut them into very fine pieces and put them in a tall, narrow blender jar; Add the cream, oil, vinegar and salt and work through with a hand blender until you have a creamy-greenish mixture. Only now gradually fold in the quark. Pour the dip into a serving vessel and let it steep in the refrigerator overnight.
  • The next day everything happens very quickly: preheat the oven to 200 degrees and line a baking sheet with baking paper. Take the herb dip out of the fridge and garnish with a few herbs before serving.
  • Pluck the rosemary needles from the branches and cut them into small pieces. Mix the oil in a small container with the garlic powder, onion powder and pul biber and finally stir in the rosemary.
  • Wash or brush the potatoes thoroughly, pat dry again and cut into slices about 2 cm thick. Napkin with the oil mixture and place on the laid out baking sheet. Bake on the middle rack for about 40 minutes; Drizzle with the rest of the rosemary oil 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time and finish baking. Sprinkle the potatoes with a little fleur de sel and serve with the fresh herb dip.
  • Note 6: the herbs in the dip can be changed as desired, depending on what the herb bed is currently offering.
