These crispy pan-fried smashed potatoes offer a delightful contrast in textures, featuring a golden, crunchy exterior and a soft, fluffy centre. By parboiling the red potatoes before lightly crushing and frying them, you create more surface area for that coveted golden crust to form. The addition of extra-virgin olive oil provides a rich, fruity base that perfectly complements the natural earthiness of the floury red potatoes.
This versatile vegetarian side dish is an excellent alternative to traditional roast potatoes or chips, pairing beautifully with grilled vegetables, roast chicken, or a fresh seasonal salad. For the best flavour, ensure you use authentic Parmigiano-Reggiano and a generous twist of black pepper just before serving. It is a simple yet sophisticated way to elevate the humble potato into something truly special for any midweek meal or Sunday feast.

Ingredients for Panfried Smashed Potatoes
8 medium red potatoes (about 2 inches long
800g)
120ml extra-virgin olive oil
120ml grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
How to make Panfried Smashed Potatoes
Generously cover potatoes with cold water in a 3-to 4-quart pot and add 1 tablespoon salt. Boil until almost tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain potatoes. Transfer to a baking sheet and lightly crush to about 3/4 inch thick with a potato masher, keeping potatoes intact as much as possible.
Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Transfer potatoes with a spatula to skillet, then lower heat to medium-low and cook, turning once, until golden brown, about 20 minutes total. Serve sprinkled with cheese. Season generously with pepper.
