Ingredients
- 2½ lbs fingerling potatoes washed and dried
- 2 tsp kosher salt
- 2 tsp black pepper freshly ground
- ½ cup olive oil
- ⅓ cup garlic cloves or 1 head of garlic cloves; peeled
- 2 tbsp salted butter
- 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves or ½ tsp dried thyme
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400℉ (200℃/Gas Mark 6).
- Cut the larger potatoes ones in half to ensure even cooking. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a foil-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with a quarter cup of the olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper.
- Place the garlic cloves in foil and pour in a tablespoon of olive oil with a hearty pinch of salt. Then wrap the garlic up tightly to form a small pouch. Place this on the baking sheet alongside the potatoes.
- Roast the potatoes and garlic in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork tender. Once done, remove them from the oven.
- Gently smash the roasted potatoes using the flat bottom of a glass or a measuring cup. For the most crispy bits, use a fork to raise up some ragged pieces from the potato.
- Create the garlic butter: Take the roasted garlic cloves and mix them with melted butter, the rest of the olive oil, salt, pepper, and fresh thyme leaves. Smash the garlic with a spoon to really release their flavor into the butter mixture.
- Generously brush the smashed potatoes with the garlic butter mixture using a silicone brush or spoon. Return them to the oven and broil on low for 5-10 minutes, or until they are crispy and golden.
- Serve the fingerling smashed potatoes hot, ideally as a side dish or as a party appetizer.
