"Want a shortcut with more flavors? Try our FLEUR DE SALTY seasoning in this recipe! This recipe pairs my favorite crispy potato technique with my favorite homemade condiment: pesto. It’s a good one to serve at gatherings because it looks far more impressive that the sum of its parts, which is essentially roasting smashed potatoes, making a pesto, and serving these on top of Greek yogurt! You can also use the technique to prepare plain smashed potatoes as a side or vary the recipe: try sour cream underneath the potatoes, topped with crispy bacon bits, Parmesan and chives or tahini and yoghurt underneath the potatoes with with harissa and toasted walnuts on top—there are so many variations to try!"
