Cook’s Note: Following the steps exactly results in a crisp soft potato that will not crumble when smashed. It’s important to let the potatoes rest and drizzle them with olive oil before and after smashing them. The potatoes can be smashed in different ways, but the baking pan makes the smashing easy. Also, make sure you use potatoes that are about 1-1/2 to 2 inches in diameter and remove them right after browning.

Serve Smashed Potatoes: Place potatoes on serving plate; garnish with chopped green onions and parsley. Place yogurt or sour cream in small bowl; mix in fine chopped chives and parsley as desired. Serve on the side with potatoes. Serve immediately.
