I find that many of the Pioneer Woman's recipes are easy to make, this one included.
Crash Hot Potatoes
Ingredients
1 1/2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
Kosher Salt To Taste
Black Pepper To Taste
Garlic powder to taste
Oregano to taste
Method:
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add in as many potatoes as you wish to make and cook them until they are fork-tender.
On a sheet pan, generously drizzle olive oil. Place tender potatoes on the cookie sheet leaving plenty of room between each potato.
With a potato masher, gently press down each potato until it slightly mashes, rotate the potato masher 90 degrees and mash again. Brush the tops of each crushed potato generously with more olive oil.
Sprinkle potatoes with kosher salt, fresh ground black pepper and spices.
Bake in a 450 degree oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
These were as delicious as I expected. Mine got the garlic. Hubby got the oregano.




I too love potatoes and a good bashing! Sounds like a fun and tasty recipe. I'll keep this in mind for future FFPW roundups.
ReplyDeleteI love Ree! I made these potatoes the other night, along with her Grilled Rib Eye with Onion Blue Cheese Sauce AND the Rosemary Rolls. Fabulous dinner!!

ReplyDeleteAren't these great? A true Texas favorite. Grams always called them garlic smashers. Personally I think she loved taking out her frustrations on the potatoes!
ReplyDeleteThere is DEFINITELY something satisfying about smashing food. And kneading bread for that matter. Gets out your aggression like nothing else can!
ReplyDeleteThese look awesome. Ree never fails to make me salivate (and neither do you).
I've made these potatoes several times and we just LOVE them. I add rosemary...soo good!!
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely. May have this tomorrow with some meatloaf! kitchenbutterfly.com
ReplyDeleteI made these back in the summer and they were delicious. Most of her recipes are really really good.
