Potatoes

Crème Fraiche

Toasted Garlic

Smoked Tomato-Thai Chili Sauce

Method

Preparing the potatoes

  1. 1

    Boil the Potatoes

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the red-skinned potatoes and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Smash the Potatoes

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the boiled potatoes on a baking sheet. Using a fork or potato masher, gently smash each potato until flattened but not completely broken apart.

  3. 3

    Season and Bake

    Drizzle the smashed potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until golden and crispy.

Preparing the toasted garlic

  1. 4

    Toast the Garlic

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until golden brown and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Making the sauce

  1. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In a small bowl, mix together the smoked tomatoes, Thai chili paste, and lime juice until well combined.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Serve the crispy smashed potatoes topped with toasted garlic, a dollop of crème fraiche garnished with chives, and a generous drizzle of the smoked tomato-Thai chili sauce.
