Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs 900g small red potatoes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Wash your potatoes (leave the skins intact!) and pop them in a pot of lightly salted water. Bring to the boil, then simmer the potatoes until fork-tender (around 15 minutes).
  • Pre-heat your oven to 425F (215C) and prepare a baking tray with baking paper.
  • Mix together your olive oil and spices in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Once cooked, drain the potatoes and place them on your baking tray. Using a flat glass, or similar, press down on each potato to “smash” it.
  • Brush each potato with the oil and spice mixture.
  • Bake potatoes for 20-25 minutes or until they’ve reached your desired crispiness.

Notes

You don't need to make this recipe with red skin potatoes! You can use any potatoes you have on hand.
