We've seen plenty of potato trends over the past few years: Retro hasselback potatoes made a comeback, buttery "melting" potatoes took over Pinterest soon after, and now smashed potatoes are the spuds of the moment. The idea is to simmer small potatoes until tender, then toss them with olive oil, flatten them and crisp them in the oven. It's simple - and insanely delicious. There are more than 35,000 #smashedpotatoes photos on Instagram, and many Food Network stars are obsessed, too. Here's how to make them like a pro.

Quick and easy recipe for roasted baby potatoes. Bake them at the same time as you cook your main dish! Can also be used as a quick appetizer! These were so good you don't even need butter or salt to taste. Made the mistake of having them done before the main dish and they were almost all gone by the time dinner started!

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or red potatoes, hold their shape better than starchy potatoes, such as Idaho potatoes, when boiled.
  • Scrub the potatoes thoroughly: This will remove any dirt or debris from the skins.
  • Use a large pot: The potatoes need enough room to move around in the water so that they cook evenly.
  • Add salt to the water: This will help to flavor the potatoes.
  • Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to low: This will help to prevent the potatoes from boiling over.
  • Cook the potatoes until they are tender: This will take about 10-15 minutes for small potatoes and 20-25 minutes for larger potatoes.
  • Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly: This will make them easier to handle.

Conclusion:

Boiling small potatoes is a quick and easy way to cook them. They can be served as a side dish or used in salads, soups, and stews. With a few simple tips, you can cook perfect boiled small potatoes every time.
