Crash Hot Potatoes with Cheese 

We just can’t every have enough yummy potato recipes, so if you are tired of plain boiled or baked potatoes, you’ll want to give this crispy alternative potato recipe a try.

We love these”Crash” hot potatoes loaded with yummy Asiago cheese.

Crash hot potatoes originated in Australia and were made popular by the Pioneer Woman, Ree Drummond. Ree credits Australian food writer, Jill Dupleix, for developing the basic recipe.

This adapted version features aged Asiago cheese, which hails from the northeastern part of Italy.  Asiago cheese has a clean robust, nutty flavor that adds an interesting dimension to these crispy, baked potato base.

If you’ve never tried Asiago cheese with potatoes, you are going to love it! This is one of our favorite combinations. Fresh butter and parsley round out the flavors to create a really fabulous dish your family will love!

Ingredients

• 1-1/4 lbs. small red potatoes
• 5 tablespoons butter cut into small chunks
• 4 oz. aged Asiago cheese freshly grated
• 3 tablespoons fresh parsley finely chopped
• Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 450°F and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
2. Boil a large pot of salted water and add potatoes. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until potatoes are fork tender. Drain pot and set potatoes aside to cool.
3. Once cool enough to handle, place potatoes on prepared baking sheet and mash with a potato masher until flat. Leave room between potatoes so they are not overcrowded.
4. Top each potato with butter and half the Asiago cheese and fresh parsley. Place in pre-heated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until potatoes are nicely browned.
5. Remove from oven and top with remaining cheese and fresh parsley. Serve immediately.

Tip: If you do not have a potato masher, you can use the bottom of a heavy coffee mug or soup bowl to flatten the potatoes. (Choose a sturdy item that won’t crack from the pressure of pushing down on the boiled potatoes).
