Instructions

Preheat oven to 425F (218C)

Step 2

Boil potatoes until soft and tender. Drain and pat dry.

Step 3

Place potatoes on a rimmed lined cookie sheet and press each one down, gently, with a potato masher. It’s OK if they crumble a bit a fall apart, just bring the crumbs together to form a cohesive disk, they will come together once roasted.

Step 4

Drizzle olive oil over smashed potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20 mins.

Step 5

Meanwhile in a small bowl whisk melted butter with minced garlic clove. Set aside.

Step 6

After potatoes have roasted for 20 minutes, pull the tray out and with a pastry brush, gently brush each potato with the melted butter mixture and place the tray back in the oven for 5 more minutes.

Step 7

Then remove potatoes with a spatula and place in a shallow bowl. Sprinkle with some fleur de sel sea salt. Add the chopped parsley and freshly grated parmesan cheese.
