Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and scrub the baby potatoes thoroughly. Place them in a large pot and cover with water. Add a pinch of salt.
Preheat the Oven
While the potatoes are boiling, preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
Drain and Smash
Drain the boiled potatoes and let them cool for a few minutes. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Using a potato masher or the bottom of a glass, gently smash each potato until they are about ½ inch thick.
Bake
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.
Garnish and Serve
Remove the potatoes from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot.
