Ingredients
Directions
1
Cook potatoes: Bring a pot of water to the boil, add 1 tbsp salt.
2
Cook potatoes until soft – about 20 to 25 minutes.
3
Preheat oven to 390°F.
4
Steam dry: Drain the potatoes and let them dry in the colander for 5 minutes or so.
5
Smash! Place on the tray then use a large fork or potato masher to squish them, keeping them in one piece. Thin = crisper. Thicker = fluffier insides. (Both good!) More nubbly surface = better crunch!
6
Steam dry again: Leave on the tray to steam dry for 5 minutes or so – makes them crispier!
7
Drizzle: Drizzle with butter, then olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
8
Bake: Bake for 45 minutes (small potatoes) or until deep golden and crispy. Do not flip!
9
Serve hot!
