Crash Hot Potatoes

Thank you Pioneer Woman..... I love you!!!!

These are the bestest potato's in the world.  My husband begs for these. I can use them to even brib him into doing anything I want him to do.  He will even go shopping if I promise to make these.  This is a recipe from www.pioneerwomancooks.com and this is just one of MANY great recipes from her website.  I am living right now for her next cook book that will be coming out in March.

Recipe: Crash Hot Potatoes

Ingredients

  • 12 whole New Potatoes (or Other Small Round Potatoes)
  • 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • Kosher Salt To Taste
  • Black Pepper To Taste
  • Rosemary (or Other Herbs Of Choice) To Taste

Preparation Instructions

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add in as many potatoes as you wish to make and cook them until they are fork-tender.
On a sheet pan, generously drizzle olive oil. Place tender potatoes on the cookie sheet leaving plenty of room between each potato.
With a potato masher, gently press down each potato until it slightly mashes, rotate the potato masher 90 degrees and mash again. Brush the tops of each crushed potato generously with more olive oil.
Sprinkle potatoes with kosher salt, fresh ground black pepper and fresh chopped rosemary (or chives or thyme or whatever herb you have available.)
Bake in a 450 degree oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
