If you are looking to make a delicious potatoes recipe which is quick then why not try this smashed potato recipe.
This versatile dish makes a lovely side dish to warm your hearts in winter or as a side dish to your barbecue spread during the warm summer months. The potatoes are crispy on the outside and creamy in the middle.
Ingredients
One potato per person
Some olive oil and melted butter, seasoning (whichever you fancy such as garlic, parmesan, dried herbs)
Salt and pepper
Method
You need to pre-cook the potatoes (either steam or boil them) so they are soft enough to press down with a potato masher.
Put them in a baking tray and smash them so they are flattish and put some flaked salt (if you don’t have any, use normal salt).
Pour over some butter and oil mix and the seasoning.
Bake at 190 to 200 C until golden brown and crispy.
