Smashed Potatoes - a Perfect Side

 These smashed potatoes, seasoned with paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper, are tender on the inside and crisp on the outside – a delicious side dish for any meal.

  1. Boil baby potatoes in a pot for 18 minutes.
  2. Lay out on a tray and smash - I use a glass tumbler.
  3. Season with smoked Paprika and garlic powder
  4. Drizzle with olive oil.
  5. Bake for 20 mins
  6. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve.
