How to Make Crushed Potatoes
- Peel and quarter 2 lbs of russet potatoes.
- Place potatoes in a large saucepan. Add enough cold, salted water to cover potatoes by about 1 inch.
- Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
- Drain the potatoes in a colander and let them sit for 5 minutes to steam.
- While potatoes are steaming, finely chop the white and light green parts of 2 scallions and 1/4 cup of fresh parsley.
- Heat 1/4 cup of olive oil (or your preferred cooking oil) in the same saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped scallions and cook until the oil begins to sizzle (about 1 minute).
- Add the drained potatoes to the saucepan. Using a fork, gently crush the potatoes into the scallion oil, leaving some chunks for texture.
- Season generously with salt and pepper. Stir in the chopped parsley.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your luxurious crushed potatoes!
