This Australian side dish livens up your traditional baked or boiled potatoes in a tasty way. Use rosemary or other herbs of your preference to season these wonderful little gems!
12 whole new potatoes or other small round potatoes
3 T. olive oil
Kosher salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
rosemary or other herbs, to taste
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add in potatoes and cook until fork-tender.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
On a sheet pan, generously drizzle olive oil. Place tender potatoes on the cookie sheet leaving plenty of room between each potato.
With a potato masher, gently press down each potato until it slightly mashes, rotate the potato masher 90 degrees and mash again. Brush the tops of each crushed potato generously with more olive oil.
Sprinkle potatoes with kosher salt, fresh ground black pepper and fresh chopped rosemary.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
