Baked Smashed Potatoes

RECIPE BY SARA FROM @BETTERFOODGURU

There are so many ways to eat a potato, and this is our favourite one! The crispy bits at the edges are the best parts. So be sure to get your dips ready!

INGREDIENTS

• 1 lb yukon gold or red potatoes
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• juice of 1 lemon

METHOD

1. Boil potatoes for 15 minutes. Drain well.
2. Drizzle with oil, salt and garlic powder. Massage to season evenly.
3. Place on a sheet pan and bake for 10 minutes at 420 °F. Flip each potato and smash with a spoon or spatula. Bake for 10 more minutes or until the edges are crispy. Remove from the oven and squeeze over the lemon.
4. Optional toppings are a drizzle of tahini and chopped fresh herbs.
