Smashed Potatoes by

Tags: garlic, potato, garlicscapes

Ingredients

Veggie Box new potatoes
2.5 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves of Veggie Box garlic, crushed (or diced
garlic scapes from a few weeks ago!)
2 teaspoon parsley, basil, rosemary
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Try to leave the potatoes whole, but chop up the ones that are larger so all the potatoes are about the same size. Boil slightly salted water, then throw your potatoes into the pot. Leave them to cook for 15 minutes or until they're cooked through and soft. Grease a baking tray with olive oil, and get the potatoes out of the pot and onto the baking tray. Lightly crush the potatoes with a fork or the bottom of a cup, but make sure not to over do it as you don’t want really flat
pieces of potato all over your baking sheet. Using the excess olive oil on the baking tray, light brush the potatoes with the olive oil.
Season with freshly ground black pepper, and sea salt. Sprinkle with either dried or fresh herbs and garlic. Bake in the oven for 10-15 more minutes at 400 F. The baking time depends on the size of your potatoes, so keep checking on them as they bake. Serve immediately.
