Ingredients

The following ingredients have 5 Servings
  • 2 pounds small red potatoes
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 tablespoon ranch powder
  • 2 cloves of garlic (minced)
  • Grated parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)

Instruction

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil and add the potatoes. Cook until fork tender, about 15 minutes. Remove and place on a baking sheet.
  • Preheat oven to 400 °F
  • Gently, using a potato masher or similar, smash the potatoes. Not too hard or you'll end up with crumbled potatoes. Just enough pressure to smash them.
  • In a small measuring cup, whisk together melted butter, ranch powder, and minced garlic.
  • Evenly pour the butter mixture atop the smashed potatoes then sprinkle parmesan cheese on top.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Bake for 15 minutes or until the tops are brown and the edges/skin get crispy.
  • Serve and enjoy!
