Description

Ingredients

• 7 large red potatoes, cut in half
• 6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• ¾ cup Parmesan Cheese, I use freshly grated using a Microplane Grater
• Kosher Salt and black pepper to taste
• chopped parsley for garnish if desired

Directions

• Heat oven to 425 degrees.
• Drizzle sheet pan generously with three tablespoons of olive oil.
• Place potatoes cut side down on sheet pan.
• Roast for 20-25 minutes or until the cut sides are golden brown.
• Flip the potatoes over so the skin side is down.
• Using a potato masher, press down each potato until smashed but not completely flattened.
• The more varied the top is, the more nooks and crannies that can brown in the second half of cooking.
• Brush tops of mashed potatoes with the remaining olive oil.
• In a small bowl mix the garlic and Parmesan cheese then add them to the top of the potatoes.
• Add Kosher Salt and fresh cracked black pepper to taste.
• Bake for an additional 20 minutes.
• Garnish with chopped parsley or additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
