Smashed Potatoes
Preparation time : 40 minutes
6 - 8 large potatoes
2 tbsp olive oil
3 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 garlic cloves, whole and unpeeled
1/2 cup cream
1/2 cup milk
1 tbsp mustard
1 tbsp tomato paste
7 oz processed cheese
1 oz jalapeños
salt, pepper
Step by step
- Preheat the oven (446°F). Cook the potatoes in salted water for approx. 15 minutes. Spread out on a baking sheet lined with baking paper and press lightly down.
- Drizzle olive oil, and spread rosemary sprigs and unpeeled garlic cloves over the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper and bake for approx. 25 minutes.
- Warm cream and milk in a saucepan. Add mustard and tomato paste. Add the cheese and reduce to a creamy sauce. Chop the jalapeños into fine rings and add to the sauce shortly before finished cooking. Serve the potatoes with warm sauce.
Tip: Cooked potatoes you have leftover from yesterday work great too.
