QUICK & CRISPY SMASHED POTATOES

Pressed potatoes with garlic & seasonings

-Extended recipe-

noun_divider_2142148
   Lately I was often making smashed potatoes. Occasionally while being short with time I would use a pressure cooker to quickly get them done. Cooking in a pressure cooker under the highest pressure reduces time of cooking – actually double. 
My first thought was to publish the recipe only for those delicious potatoes that don’t require the use of an oven. Process is very basic and simple: after cooking I press them and fry on both sides on a frying pan with a bit of oil.
   I changed my mind about publishing only the recipe for potatoes. I decided to publish an extended recipe because the combination of those smashed potatoes, glazed carrots, spinach with garlic and vegan Filet Pieces from Halsans Kok – is simply great. It can be a lovely idea for a weekend lunch with family.
    Extended recipe with the full list of ingredients can be found under the image section of this post, in the recipe box.
