Garlic and Rosemary Smashed Potatoes

These smashed potatoes are the perfect mixture of crunchy roasted and soft mashed ones. The original recipe comes from America’s Test Kitchen which is a rocking publication for aspiring cooks. The recipe is super simple and lets face it, I love to smash things!

Yukon gold potatoes
EVOO
Garlic cloves, thinly sliced
Rosemary, chopped
Salt and pepper

Set oven to 400. Pierce potatoes in several places and insert garlic slices into the potatoes. I did 3 or 4 slices per potato. Roll potatoes in EVOO, sprinkle with salt, pepper and chopped rosemary. Bake the potatoes for 30 min or until soft. Smash each potato once with a large fork and continue to bake for 10-15 min.
