Crash Hot Potatoes - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 new potatoes (or any small potatoes)
olive oil, for drizzling
kosher salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
rosemary (or any desired herb)

Preparation

Boil potatoes in salted water until fork tender. (This is very important! They must be very tender.).
Drizzle sheet pan generously with olive oil.
Place tender potatoes on sheet pan, leaving plenty of room between each potato.
With a potato masher, gently press down each potato until it slightly mashes, rotate the masher 90 degrees and mash again. (One reviewer suggested using the bottom of a glass for this step. I tried it, and it works MUCH better than the masher.).
Brush tops of mashed potatoes with olive oil.
Sprinkle with salt, pepper and herbs.
Bake in 450 degree oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
