Parmesan Garlic Crash Hot Potatoes
Parmesan Garlic Crash Hot Potatoes are red potatoes roasted until tender, then gently smashed to increase surface area for extra crispness. The smashed tops are brushed with olive oil and topped with a mixture of minced garlic and freshly grated Parmesan cheese before roasting again to develop a golden, textured crust. The potatoes finish with kosher salt, black pepper, and optional parsley garnish.

- Roast for 20-25 minutes or until the cut sides are golden brown.
- Flip the potatoes over so the skin side is down.
- Using a potato masher, press down each potato until smashed but not completely flattened.
- The more varied the top is, the more nooks and crannies that can brown in the second half of cooking.
- Brush tops of mashed potatoes with the remaining olive oil.
- In a small bowl mix the garlic and Parmesan cheese then add them to the top of the potatoes.
