Ingredients
- 16 small potatoes Bella Blancas are my fav
- ½ cup olive oil
- 5 cloves garlic sliced
- fresh thyme leaves
- fresh oregano leaves
- 2 tablespoons grated parmigiano-reggiano
- Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Generously cover potatoes with cold water in a medium pot and add 1 tablespoon salt. Boil until almost tender, 10 to 15 minutes and then drain.
- Transfer the boiled potatoes to a baking sheet and lightly crush to about ¾ inch thick with a potato masher or any flat surface, keeping potatoes intact as much as possible. You can use the bottom of a skillet if you want!
- Heat the olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the herbs and garlic fry until fragrant, about 60-90 seconds. Transfer to a bowl.
- Working in batches and adding more olive oil to the skillet pan as needed, sear the smashed potatoes until well browned and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. Transfer the potatoes to the rack-lined baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven to keep warm.
- To serve, top with the fried herbs, garlic and grated Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
Notes
- ou can serve them up as a side dish along with dinner, you can even throw them out as an appetizer with a side of kopanisti (a whipped feta dip) for you to nibble on pre-dinner!
