Crispy Baked Smashed Blue Potatoes
I began harvesting potatoes! This is one of my families favorite recipes. Hope you enjoy as much as we do!
What you will need:
Blue Potatoes
Unsalted butter
Olive oil
Salt & Pepper
Scallions/Chives
Place potatoes in a pot and top with 2 inches of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer until continue cooking until potatoes are soft. About 20-25 minutes depending on size.
Drain potatoes over a strainer and set aside until there is no more steam from the potatoes. About 5 minutes.
Preheat oven to 180 Celsius (350 Fahrenheit).
Arrange potatoes on a baking sheet. Smash each potato with a fork, brush with melted butter, drizle with olive oil (~ 1/4 teaspoon per potato), and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Bake/roast for 40-45 minutes until the skin is crispy. Do not flip during baking.
Remove baked potatoes from oven, serve hot sprinkle with your choice of garnish.
