Ingredients 

  • 12 baby potatoes
  • 3 Tablespoons of Olive Oil
  • Kosher Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh cut herbs (if desired)
  • Parmesan, Finely Grated

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

  2. Boil some baby potatoes (I used red) until fork tender

  3. Drizzle olive oil on a baking sheet, set potatoes on sheet and using a potato masher, gently smash each potato down, rotating masher both ways (so it looks like a thick cookie).

  4. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt/pepper and sprinkle cut fresh herbs and garlic over each. THEN top with some grated Parmesan cheese.

  5. Bake for 20 minutes. OMGoodness... Crispy on the outside, soft in the middle, salty, garlicky, herby and cheesy goodness.
