Zubereitung von Garlic Smashed Potatoes
- In a large soup pot, combine 1.5 lbs whole red potatoes and 4 cloves garlic (peeled) with enough water to cover by several inches.
- Bring the water to a boil, cover the pot, and reduce heat to a simmer.
- Simmer the potatoes steadily for 20-25 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork.
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Lightly grease a 12-inch baking dish with 1 tbsp olive oil.
- Drain the potatoes and garlic; let cool slightly until easily handled (do not let them become cold).
- Cut the potatoes into quarters and gently smash each one using a potato masher or the bottom of a glass. Alternatively, place potatoes on a cutting board and gently tap with a meat mallet.
- Transfer the potatoes to the prepared baking dish, arranging them tightly.
- Finely mince the garlic and scatter it evenly over the potatoes.
- Drizzle 2 tbsp olive oil over the potatoes.
- Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven.
