Crash Hot Potatoes

This delightful dish hails from Australia, the land down under.  When you taste these crispy-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside potatoes, it is easy to see why they quickly become a favorite of most everyone who tries them!  Basically, they are a french fry in disguise...but better for you then what you'd find at a fast food joint!
Crash Hot Potatoes 
Prep time: 30 Min
Total:  55 Min.


Ingredients:
Medium to smallish red potatoes (make a lot—they will all get eaten!)
Olive oil for brushing
Fresh ground salt and pepper to taste
Garlic powder or other desired herb, to taste

Directions:
Preheat oven to 425°.  Boil or bake potatoes until fork tender. Generously drizzle olive oil onto a cookie sheet, place boiled potatoes on it, then smash lightly with a potato smasher. Brush top and sides of potatoes all over with olive oil, then sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper and any additional desired herbs and seasonings.  Bake until potatoes are light brown and the outside is crispy, about 25 minutes.
