Smashed roasted potatoes with tomato and onion

A new way to cook one of my favourite vegetables: smashed roasted potatoes!!

I love potatoes.

I bake them, steam them, sauté or fry them.

I serve them with meat, fish, onions, peppers or simply on their own.

You can cook them in every possible way and they will be always delicious. 🙂

I saw this recipe a lot of times on the web.

I fell in love with it since the first glance and after a bit I could finally prepare and taste it at home.

For this recipe, you will need to cook potatoes in two different ways, but it’s worth it: these potatoes are more than delicious. 🙂

They are crispy and we really enjoy them for dinner.

My partner, who was a bit sceptical at the beginning, took them three times and asked me to make this recipe again soon.

So, I think I can consider this dish a real success!! 😀

Smashed roasted potatoes with tomato and onion

Ingredients

8 potatoes

1 tomato

1 small new red onion

chives

salt

fresh thyme

fresh rosemary

pepper

extra-virgin olive oil

First important think: do not peel potatoes.

Wash carefully, brush and steam them for 15-20 minutes until they are almost done.

Pre-heat the oven at 200°C.

Drain the potatoes and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Take a potato masher and mash the potatoes with care.

Season with salt, pepper, fresh thyme and rosemary and a drizzle of olive oil.

Put into the oven and roast for 20-30 minutes until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.

Meanwhile, dice the tomato and slice the onion.

Remove the potatoes from the oven, sprinkle them with tomato, onion and chopped chives.

Serve with tzatziki sauce and meat.

There you go, my smashed roasted potatoes with tomato and onion are ready to be served.

Bon Appétit!!
