Soft on the inside, nice and crispy on the outside. These smashed potatoes make a delicious and fun side dish!

1/2 cup oil

2 cubes frozen garlic

2 cubes frozen parsley

1 cube frozen basil

2 teaspoons salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1: Combine all the ingredients besides the potatoes in a small bowl and mix until incorporated 

2: Add the potatoes to a pot filled with bubbling water and boil for fifteen minutes
