Smashing Potatoes

 Smashed potatoes are a popular dish right now. They're a relatively easy recipe that has a few ingredients.It can be used for a side but also fro a main course.

I wanted to try them after writing about them so much. I bought small potatoes from Lidl

It was then boiling them  for fifteen minutes in water.

Afterwards it was smashing them with a cup's bottom

They kind of look like potato pancakes. It was then time for the air fryer.

It was first a bath in olive oil along with salt and pepper.The basket was sprayed to prevent the potatoes from sticking

It was then first ten minutes in the air fryer at 400 degrees Farenheit . They were then shaken and fried for another ten minutes

This was the first  batch.They were burnt a little and crispy. The second bath was much better. with a meaty inside crispy edges.

These are the perfect sides but with a side of sour cream and a salad would make a perfect meal. Try them and taste their deliciousness.
