How to Make Crispy Smashed Potato Salad | F.N. Sharp Recipes

Video Description

Crispy. Creamy. Hot and cold. This extra crispy potato salad is all about texture and contrast – and it just might become your new favorite side dish. We’re taking fork-tender baby potatoes, smashing them, and roasting them at a high heat until golden and ultra crispy. Then comes the magic: those hot, crunchy potatoes get folded into a cool, creamy, Greek-inspired dressing made with mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, lemon, garlic, red onion, bell peppers, scallions, fresh parsley, and briny olives. The warmth of the potatoes gently melts everything together, creating a potato salad that’s bold, balanced, and anything but boring. Finish it off with feta cheese, crispy bacon, or extra fresh herbs for even more flavor and texture. Perfect for cookouts, potlucks, game day parties, or anytime you want to upgrade a classic, this recipe proves potato salad doesn’t have to be predictable. 🔪 Made even easier with F.N.
