CRISPY SMASHED POTATOES WITH GARLIC PESTO #vegetarian #glutenfree

These potatoes are anything but difficult to make, requiring only 9 fixings and around 1 hour to make! The idea is basic. Bubble infant potatoes until delicate. At that point crush until practically level and meal until firm and brilliant darker. The outcome is a splendidly delicate, rich potato with brilliant darker, firm edges.

While that is occurring, make your smooth, garlic-herb veggie lover pesto! Only 5 minutes to make, madly energetic and tasty, and such a stunning green tint. Presently, we're prepared for gathering!

Delicate potatoes crushed, broiled until firm, at that point bested with a velvety garlic-herb pesto! A delightful veggie lover and sans gluten canap� or nibble!

CRISPY SMASHED POTATOES WITH GARLIC PESTO #vegetarian #glutenfree

Ingredients
POTATOES

  • 1 1/2 pounds baby gold/yellow potatoes
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil (or sub other neutral oil)
  • 1 healthy pinch each sea salt & black pepper (~1/2 tsp as original recipe is written)

PESTO

  • 2 heaping cups loosely packed fresh basil (large stems removed)
  • 2 cloves garlic (chopped // 2 cloves yield ~1 Tbsp chopped)
  • 3 Tbsp raw pine nuts or walnuts (for nut allergies, omit)
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp nutritional yeast*
  • 2-3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil (or sub other neutral oil)
  • 1 healthy pinch each sea salt & black pepper

Instructions

  1. Add rinsed potatoes to a large pot and cover with water until just submerged. Bring to a boil over high heat. Then reduce to medium-high heat to achieve a low boil. Cook uncovered for 15-20 minutes or until tender and a knife easily slides in and out.
  2. In the meantime, prepare pesto by adding basil, garlic, nuts, lemon juice, and nutritional yeast to a food processor and blending to combine. Stream in 2-3 Tbsp olive oil (amount as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size) a little at at time until a thick paste is formed. If trying to reduce fat, thin the sauce with water instead of additional oil. I like adding a little water to mine to make it more of a pourable sauce, but this is optional.
  3. Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more lemon juice for acidity, nutritional yeast for cheesy flavor, salt and pepper for overall flavor, or garlic for zing/bite. Transfer to a small serving dish and set aside.
  4. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (232 C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. When the potatoes are soft and tender, place on the baking sheet and smash down with the bottom of a saucepan. For any larger potatoes, cut in half and then smash so they are still "bite size."
  5. Drizzle the potatoes with 1 1/2 Tbsp oil and season with a healthy pinch each salt and pepper (amounts as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size) . Roast for 20-25 minutes or until crispy and golden brown.
  6. To serve, spoon the pesto over the potatoes (you will have leftovers). Garnish with chopped basil or parsley and additional pine nuts (optional).
  7. Best when fresh. Store leftovers separately in the refrigerator. Potatoes will keep for 3-4 days. Pesto will keep for about 1 week (see notes for uses for leftovers). Reheat in a 350-degree oven until hot, then top with any leftover pesto.

Notes
*Nutritional yeast adds the cheesy flavor to the pesto. I purchase mine in bulk at Whole Foods, but you can also order it online. If not vegan, you can sub parmesan cheese.
*Nutrition information is a rough estimate calculated with all of the pesto.
*If you have leftover pesto, add it to scrambles, pasta sauces, Sweet Potato Lasagna, or this Pea Pesto Pasta Salad!
