To make my easy crispy smashed potatoes I first smash open three garlic cloves just
0:07
so they burst open a little and their flavour can come out and infuse the potatoes
0:13
Then I add medium and smaller potatoes to a large roasting pan and drizzle over the
0:18
oil and then some salt. I then toss the potatoes well and arrange them with a good size gap in between each one
0:26
They will need plenty of space when you smash them open. Then nestle in three sprigs of rosemary and then the garlic
0:37
Transfer to the oven and roast for 35 minutes then remove and turn the potatoes over
0:44
Using a potato masher carefully press down on each one until they burst at the sides
0:56
Next put a little knob of butter on each potato, return to the oven and roast for a
1:02
further 35 minutes until deep, golden and crispy
