Smashed #potatoes are making their way through! So here we are jumping on the bandwagon and sharing our #recipe of this super quick appetizer - just boil, #smash and bake.
What you need:
• Small-to-medium Potatoes - 1 kg
• Sea salt, divided - 1 tbsp plus 1/4 tsp, divided
• Olive oil - 4 tbsp, divided
• Garlic powder - 1/4 tsp
• Onion powder - 1/4 tsp
• Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• Fresh parsley, chives and/or green onion - 2 tbsp, chopped
Method:
1. Place the potatoes in a pot and add the ¼ tsp salt, and cover with water. Cook the potatoes in for 10-12 minutes until the potatoes have just started to soften
2. While the potatoes #cook, preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius and drizzle 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over a large baking sheet
3. When the potatoes are done, drain them and let them cool for about 5 minutes
4. Evenly distribute the potatoes over the prepared baking sheet, and use the back of a glass and gently smash each potato - Pro tip: thinner potatoes are more crispy
5. Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the smashed potatoes. Sprinkle the garlic powder, onion powder and remaining ¼ teaspoon salt and pepper over the potatoes
6. #Bake until the potatoes are nice and golden on the edges, about 25 to 30 minutes. Sprinkle them with chopped fresh #herbs, and serve hot
*Smashed potato topping suggestion: Add a dusting of #cheese after baking, such as grated #Parmesan or crumbled feta
