“I really enjoyed these. My only complaint is every utensil I used to smash the potato caused the potatoes to stick to that utensil but we got through it. I also used parchment paper, drizzled oil on the paper then smashed the taters. If yours did not crisp” — a cook, 4.0★
“Followed the recipe (almost) exactly and these potatoes are amazing! I added fresh ground black pepper after cooking, and also added some finely chopped fresh rosemary before serving. This recipe is going straight into my regular rotation.” — a cook, 5.0★
