Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 8 medium red potatoes (2 lb. total)
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon each: pepper and dried thyme
  • 2 large garlic cloves (very finely minced)

Instruction

  • Place the potatoes in a large pot (so they are in a single layer) and cover them with an inch of water. Bring the pot to a boil then reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, salt, pepper, thyme, and garlic.
  • Remove the potatoes from the pot and let them cool slightly. Turn your oven to broil with the rack near the top.
  • Smash the potatoes (see notes) then drizzle them with the oil and herbs. Broil for 10 minutes, or until the tops are crispy.
