Crunchy Smash Potatoes

These crunchy smash potatoes are on repeat in my house at least once a week!

They are just the PERFECT side dish to so many meals. I especially love them as a side to when I am doing a roast dinner, paired with my roast chicken and you’ve got yourself a great meal!

Also, it’s just fun to smash them before you bake them! The crispy edges and skin, then the fluffy potato in the middle - so yum.

Can you tell I love potatoes?!

Prep Time: 25 min

Cooking Time: 45 min

Serves: 2 as a side


Ingredients:

  • Baby chat potatoes

  • Butter (about 25g per 10 potatoes) 

  • Olive oil (about 1 TBS per 10 potatoes) 

  • Sea salt flakes

  • Onion powder 

  • Rosemary 

Method: 

Bring a pot of water to a boil

Add the potatoes and boil for 25 mins

Preheat oven to 200c 

Drain the potatoes and place on a lined baking tray

Use a cup with a flat bottom or potato masher, and very carefully squish the potatoes (so they don’t completely crumble and hold their shape) 

Mix together melted butter and oil and drizzle over the potatoes

Top with sea salt flakes and onion powder

Place Rosemary in the pan 

Bake for 45 mins until crunchy and golden! 

Serve and enjoy!
