how-to smashed potatoes
Start with cold water. Boil potatoes for 15 minutes in cold
water, making sure to add 2-3 tablespoons of Kosher salt to
the water for seasoning.
Smash boiled potatoes. Place potatoes on a pan lined
with a silicon baking sheet. Using a spatula, apply enough
pressure to split the tops open for a “smashed” effect.
Roast at high heat. Coat smashed potatoes with olive oil,
salt, pepper and parmesan. Roast at 400 degrees for 18
minutes to get them extra crisp.
