    Ingredients

    • 1 kg small potatoes washed
    • 3 tbsp olive oil
    • generous pinch of salt

    To serve

    • fresh parsley leaves chopped
    • sriracha mayonnaise or dipping sauce of choice

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 200C/390F.
    • Prick potatoes with a fork. Boil the potatoes for about 20 minutes in salted water until soft and a fork can easily pierce them.
    • Drain the potatoes and transfer to a baking tray. Press the potatoes down using the bottom of a glass or a potato masher to flatten them. The skin will break open. Press them so they are flattened but not breaking apart, about 2.5-3cm / 1 inch thick.
    • Drizzle over the olive oil and salt.
    • Bake for 30 minutes, then check colour. Depending on your oven, to get them SUPER crispy they may need another 10 – 20 minutes. Keep checking on them every 10 minutes until they are golden and starting to brown around the edges.
    • Serve immediately with dipping sauce of choice, garnish with parsley.
