Smashed potatoes.... not to be confused with Mashed potatoes are my families new favorite side.
These are easy and delicious, two of my favorite attributes in food.
This recipe calls for small baby potatoes. We prefer the gold variety... but really all are delicious. In the stores I frequent... they come in small pre-packaged bags. I take them out and wash them. Make sure and give them a good scrub, because the skin is the best part.
Next, I place them on a microwave safe dish and pre-cook them in the microwave. Just until they are starting to get soft. This just speeds up the process. After the are soft, I place them on a sheet pan in a 375 degree oven.
While the are cooking, put 1/2 a stick of butter in a mason jar in the microwave. Melt the butter. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add 2 cloves of garlic, salt and pepper and about 2 taps of dried parlay to the oil and butter mix.
Remove the pan from the oven, using the bottom of the mason jar gently push down on each orator just until the skin breaks. After all the potatoes are smashed, spoon the seasoning over the top and put back in the over for 25-30 minutes.
After that time has passed, pull them out of the ove n and sprinkle shredded Parmesan cheese on top. Turn up the heat to 400 and let things get crispy for 10 minutes.
Take out and enjoy.
