Ingredients
Scale
12 small red potatoes
1/4 cup olive oil
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons coarse Kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh black pepper
Instructions
Heat oven to 450°F. In a large pot of boiling water, cook potatoes until fork tender, about 15 to 20 minutes; be careful to not overcook them. Remove potatoes and drain.
Place cooked potatoes on a well-oiled baking sheet, about 2-inches apart.
With a potato masher or fork, gently press down each potato until it slightly mashes, rotate the potato masher and mash again, until about 1/2-inch thick.
Brush each smashed potato generously with olive oil. Sprinkle with garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
