Smashed Potatoes
What you need
- small potatoes
- olive oil
- 2 cloves of garlic
Salt, pepper, water and oil don’t count. Mom always had those.
What you do
Boil small potatoes until tender. Put them on an oiled tray and squash each one flat with a glass. Oil, garlic, salt, then bake hot for thirty minutes.
How it feels to make
Squashing them flat with the bottom of a glass is the most fun you'll have with a potato.
Mom wrote on the back
Squash them properly flat. The raggedy edges are the bits that go crisp.
