<\/p>\n
INGREDIENTS:

\n\u2022 Kosher salt
\n\u2022 Good olive oil
\n\u2022 Optional: Lemon, Parmesan, and\/or fresh herbs<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
DIRECTIONS:
\n\u2022 Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat oven to 400 degrees.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\u2022 Boil potatoes to cook then drain.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Take two dishtowels and lay one down on counter placing cooked potatoes on towel separating them like mounds of cookie dough.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\u2022 Now place the other towel over the potatoes and using the flat base of your hand smash each potato.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Transfer with a spatula the potatoes to the parchment lined sheet pan.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Drizzle with olive oil and kosher salt.<\/p>\n
\u2022 You can add fresh herbs such as parsley, thyme, dill, or just leave them plain.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Cook till the edges of the potatoes are crispy about 20-25 minutes.<\/p>\n
\u2022 You can squeeze lemon juice or sprinkle with Parmesan, but I love them just plain, crispy with a dash of salt.<\/p>\n
