SMASHED POTATOES

SMASHED POTATOES
Everyone loved these. Could also add 1/2 cup malt vinegar before roasting.


Preheat oven to 450. In a large pot, bring 1 1/2# small potatoes to boil in water; reduce heat and simmer until just tender, about 15 minutes.  Drain and transfer to a baking sheet.  Let cool 5 minutes, then lightly crush each potato with the heel of your hand.  Drizzle or brush generously with olive oil (about 3 T) and  season with coarse salt (used Kosher).  Roast until golden brown and crisp, about 35 minutes, turning once.
