Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash the fingerling potatoes thoroughly and place them in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

  2. 2

    Crush the Potatoes

    Once cooked, drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly. On a clean surface or using a baking sheet, gently crush each potato with the bottom of a glass or a potato masher until they are flattened but still intact.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Potatoes

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the crushed potatoes to the skillet and season with salt and black pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Toppings

    While the potatoes are cooking, finely chop the green onions and set aside.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    Once the potatoes are crispy, remove them from the skillet and place them on a serving platter. Top each potato with a dollop of crème fraîche, a sprinkle of chopped green onions, and a spoonful of caviar.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your delicious crushed fingerling potatoes!
