Directions

Boil the potatoes – Place potatoes in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until tender but not mushy (15–20 minutes). Drain and let cool on a towel-lined baking sheet for 10 minutes.
Prepare the seasoning mix – In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, butter, garlic, rosemary, sage, thyme, savory, salt, and pepper.
Preheat oven – Set oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Smash the potatoes – Place cooled potatoes on the prepared sheet. Use a potato masher or the heel of your hand to gently flatten each potato.
Season – Spoon the garlic-herb mixture evenly over the smashed potatoes.
Bake until crispy – Roast for about 25 minutes, or until edges are golden brown and crispy.
Serve – Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!

Recipe Note

Chef Tips

For extra crispiness, broil the potatoes for 2–3 minutes after baking.
Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even browning.
Try fresh herbs like parsley or thyme if you prefer a brighter flavor.
Small red potatoes also work beautifully in this recipe.

Serving Suggestions
Serve crispy smashed potatoes with:

Grilled steak or roast chicken
Salmon or other baked fish
Vegetarian mains like roasted vegetables or lentil stew
As a party appetizer with sour cream or aioli for dipping

Storage & Reheating

Refrigerator: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Reheating: Warm in a 400°F oven for 10–12 minutes to restore crispiness.
Freezer: Not recommended, as potatoes may lose texture when thawed.
