Ingredients 

  • 800 g potatoes medium
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons butter melted
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon green onion chopped
  • 1 tablespoon dill chopped

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 200°C (392F).
  • Put the potatoes in a large pot with water and salt.
  • Bring to a boil and leave to cook, with the lid on, for 30-35 minutes, or until they become soft and pass the fork test.
  • Drain the potatoes from the water.
  • Oil the tray lined with baking paper. Arrange the potatoes and smash them with the flat bottom of a glass or a potato masher, enough to flatten them.
  • Leave the smashed potatoes on the tray for another 5 minutes so that the excess moisture evaporates.
  • Brush each potato with melted butter, sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Bake them for about 30 minutes, or until they become golden and slightly crispy.
  • Sprinkle the baked potatoes with green onions and fresh dill.
