Servings 4
Ingredients
- 1 lbs Baby potatoes
- 1 or 2 tablespoon oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Add potatoes to a large pot and fill with water till the potatoes are covered and water is about ½ above the potatoes. Place this on a medium-high burner and allow to boil. After 15-20 minutes the potatoes should be soft enough to pierce with a fork. Remove them from the heat and drain out the water.
- Preheat the oven to 450F
- Get out a large baking sheet and place a few potatoes on it in a row. Take a drinking glass and press down on one of the potatoes, smashing it. Repeat this with all the potatoes.
- Once all the potatoes are smashed, drizzle them with oil, salt, and pepper.
- Bake the potatoes for 20-25 minutes until crispy and golden on the outside. Serve immediately as is or with your favorite toppings.
