PERFECT SMASHED POTATOES
We've seen plenty of potato trends over the past few years: Retro hasselback potatoes made a comeback, buttery "melting" potatoes took over Pinterest soon after, and now smashed potatoes are the spuds of the moment. The idea is to simmer small potatoes until tender, then toss them with olive oil, flatten them and crisp them in the oven. It's simple - and insanely delicious. There are more than 35,000 #smashedpotatoes photos on Instagram, and many Food Network stars are obsessed, too. Here's how to make them like a pro.

POTATO SAUTE SURPRISE
This very simple recipe invented by my wife, Michelle, is called 'surprise' because I thought 'OK, sauteed potatoes', but then the taste was so much better and out of the ordinary I'm posting it because everyone deserves a chance to try it. The trick about is that everything but the potatoes seems to disappear into background but the flavours are there to surprise you. Peel the tomatoes the easy way. Drop them into boiling water for a 15-20 seconds. Run under cold water until cooled enough to handle then skins should nearly fall off. I hope you enjoy as much as I do, John

Steps:
- Put potatoes in lightly salted water, boil until cooked.
- Drop tomatoes into boiling potato water (see directions above).
- Remove tomatoes from boiling water and peel (see directions above).
- Once potatoes have cooked set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile heat oil in pan and sauté garlic, onion and tomatoes until cooked.
- Add the oregano and stir into mix.
- Slice the potatoes about ½ inch (12/13mm) thick and add to the tomato mixture.
- Put combined mix into oven-proof dish.
- Dot top with butter and bake in hot oven (230 degrees) for about 20 minutes or until potatoes are golden.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for surprise potatoes because they are large and have a fluffy texture. You can also use Yukon Gold potatoes or red potatoes, but they will not be as fluffy.
- Scrub the potatoes well before cooking: This will help to remove any dirt or debris. You can also peel the potatoes if you prefer, but it is not necessary.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the potatoes into wedges: This will help to ensure that the potatoes cook evenly. You can cut the potatoes into any size you like, but 1-inch wedges are a good option.
- Toss the potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper: This will help to season the potatoes and give them a crispy exterior. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Bake the potatoes at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy exterior and a fluffy interior. The potatoes should be baked at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender.
- Serve the potatoes immediately: Surprise potatoes are best served hot and fresh out of the oven. You can serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, ranch dressing, or barbecue sauce.

Surprise potatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for potlucks, parties, or weeknight dinners.
