Crash Hot Potatoes Recipe 465

CRASH HOT POTATOES

Steps:

• Boil potatoes in salted water until fork tender. (This is very important! They must be very tender.).
• Drizzle sheet pan generously with olive oil.
• Place tender potatoes on sheet pan, leaving plenty of room between each potato.
• With a potato masher, gently press down each potato until it slightly mashes, rotate the masher 90 degrees and mash again. (One reviewer suggested using the bottom of a glass for this step. I tried it, and it works MUCH better than the masher.).
• Brush tops of mashed potatoes with olive oil.
• Sprinkle with salt, pepper and herbs.
• Bake in 450 degree oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

Steps:

• And super simple, just boil some baby potatoes (I used red) until fork tender. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Drizzle olive oil on a baking sheet, set potatoes on sheet and using a potato masher, gently smash each potato down, rotating masher both ways (so it looks like a thick cookie). Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt/pepper and sprinkle cut fresh herbs and garlic over each. THEN top with some lovely grated Parmesan cheese. Bake for 20 minutes.
