📝 Preparation Steps
1
Bring the potatoes and enough water to cover them by an inch to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until a fork can easily be pushed into them, about ⏱️ 15-30 minutes depending on the size of the potatoes, before draining them.
2
Place the potatoes on a greased baking sheet and ‘smash’ them by pressing down on them with something like a potato masher, the bottom of a gloss or bowl, etc.
3
Brush the potatoes with oil, season with salt and pepper and bake them on the top shelf of a preheated 450F/230C oven until golden brown and crispy on top, about ⏱️ 20 minutes.
