Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds Baby potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the baby potatoes and cook them for about 15 minutes, or until they are fork-tender but not falling apart.
Drain the potatoes thoroughly and set them aside to cool slightly for 5 minutes.
Place the cooked potatoes on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each one. Use the bottom of a flat utensil, such as a spatula or heavy glass, to gently press down on each potato until it flattens slightly but stays intact.
Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the crushed potatoes. Sprinkle them with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and fresh rosemary.
Bake the potatoes in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Optional: Sprinkle the potatoes with Parmesan cheese during the last 5 minutes of baking for an extra layer of flavor.
Serve the crushed potatoes warm, garnished with additional rosemary or a squeeze of lemon for added freshness if desired. Enjoy!
