Simple, Rustic, and Seriously Delicious
There’s something irresistible about smashed potatoes. All those crispy edges, fluffy centres, and a little bit of wild, rustic charm – it’s the kind of food that feels comforting yet clever, perfect for when you want something just a little more exciting than plain old roast spuds.
Today’s recipe, Garlic Salt Smashed Potatoes with Herb Yoghurt, is the kind of easy dish that can be dressed up or down. Serve it as a side at a casual barbecue, or pair it with a beautiful roast for a dinner party with friends. Either way, it’s the Slow Roasted Garlic Finishing Salt that steals the show – delivering big, bold garlic flavour without any fuss.
If you’re looking for a new go-to that feels a little bit fancy but still simple enough for a Tuesday night, this is it.

Garlic Salt Smashed Potatoes with Herb Yoghurt
Ingredients
- 400g baby potatoes
- t Tbsp olive oil
- t tsp Slow Roasted Garlic Finishing Salt
- ¼ cup greek yoghurt
- 1 Tbsp fresh chopped herbs (parsley, dill, chives - or a mix)
- ½ lemon zest
Instructions
Step 1: Boil and Smash
- Boil the baby potatoes in salted water until tender (about 15 minutes)
- Drain well, then let them sit in the colander or pot for 2–3 minutes so any excess moisture can evaporate - this little step helps them roast up extra crispy later!
- Line a baking tray with baking paper. Arrange the potatoes, then gently smash each one with the bottom of a glass or a fork until they’re flattened but still holding together.
Step 2: Roast to Crispy Goodness
- Drizzle the smashed potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle generously with Slow Roasted Garlic Finishing Salt.
- Roast at 200°C (fan-forced) for 25 minutes or until golden and crispy at the edges.
Step 3: Make the Herb Yoghurt
- While the potatoes are roasting, stir together the Greek yoghurt, chopped herbs, and lemon zest. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed a tiny extra pinch of garlic salt goes a long way here!
Step 4: Plate and Serve
- Pile the golden smashed potatoes onto a serving platter or individual plates
- Spoon over (or serve alongside for dipping) the herb yoghurt
- Finish with a little extra garlic salt and a sprinkle of fresh herbs if you like
- Eat immediately, while everything’s gloriously crispy
