Cheesy Garlic Roasted Potato Disks

Prep the Oven and Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil. Wash the potatoes thoroughly and slice them into thick rounds (about 1 inch thick).
Season the Base: In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano.
The First Roast: Arrange the potato disks on the baking sheet. Brush both sides of each potato generously with the garlic butter mixture. Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork and starting to turn golden.
Add the “Melting” Cheese: Remove the tray from the oven. Using the back of a spoon or a small glass, gently press down on the center of each potato to create a slight indentation. Spoon a generous amount of shredded cheese into the center of each disk.
Final Broil: Place the potatoes back into the oven for another 5-8 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and has formed a crispy, golden-brown crust around the edges.
Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and sprinkle immediately with fresh parsley. Let them sit for 2 minutes so the cheese sets before serving.

Flavor Variation: For a kick, add a pinch of red chili flakes to the butter mixture.
Air Fryer Version: You can make these in the air fryer at 200°C for about 12-15 minutes, adding the cheese in the last 3 minutes.
