Scale
- 1 pound 1"-diameter baby potatoes

- 1 Tbs thyme (or any other type of fresh herb available)
Instructions
- Heat oven to 425. Lightly oil a baking sheet, and boil a large pot of salted water.
- Once water boils, add potatoes. Cook until tender (15-20 minutes).
- Place potatoes onto prepared baking sheet. Use fork to flatten potatoes (keep in one piece).

Notes
- You can use any small potato for this recipe, but I like to use golden potatoes.
- Fresh thyme is obviously preferable (and prettiest), but in a pinch you can sprinkle any fresh herb you have on hand ,or even use a dried version.
