Smash the Potatoes
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and let them cool slightly. Place each potato on a cutting board and gently press down with a flat object (like a plate) to smash them.

Fry the Potatoes
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the smashed potatoes in batches and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
