These crispy, crunchy, no peel, no slice, fast & easy smash fries just might be your new favorite way to eat fingerling potatoes.
The Method
Deliciousness in 5 simple steps –wash, boil, smash, season & roast.
The Recipe
2 lbs Fingerling small to medium potatoes
1/3 to 1/2 cup of Organic olive oil
1 1/2 TBLS Sea Salt
1 tsp Frontier All -Purpose seasoning
1/2 to 1 tsp Paprika
1/4 to 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
Wash up your potatoes. This recipe works best when all potatoes are the same size. If some are larger than the others cut them in half to match creating an average size potato.
In your largest pot boil the whole potatoes till soft but not falling apart, about 10-14 min.
Drain & allow them to cool for a few minutes in a colander.
Grease 3 cookie sheets.
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
Place slightly cooled potatoes on the greased cookie sheets one at a time. Get a rhythm going as you gently smash each one down with either a potato masher, bottom of a drinking glass or a fork.
Place, smash repeat.
Drizzle the smashed potatoes with oil and sprinkle with salt.
Mix the three spices together and sprinkle a bit on each potato, giving each one a delicious dusting of flavor.
Bake at 450 degrees for 20 min, serve hot.
