Instructions

Step 1 Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add 1 Tbsp salt once boiling.

Step 2 Add potatoes and cook until soft, about 20 to 25 minutes. The medium ones might take up to 30 minutes to cook.

Step 3 Preheat the oven to 400˚F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 4 Drain the potatoes and let them dry for about 5 minutes.

Step 5 Place on the lined tray and use the base of a pint glass to smash the potatoes. Make sure to keep them in one piece. The thinner they are, the crispier they will be.

Step 6 Leave the potatoes on the tray to dry for another 5 minutes. This will help them get crispy!

Step 7 Drizzle with butter and olive oil. Season with Head Country Championship Seasoning.

Step 8 Bake for 45 minutes to 55 minutes, until deep golden and crispy. Enjoy!
