I was inspired to create this after visiting a great Latin restaurant. The salty potatoes and the bright herbs are great together.

These potatoes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more salt and pepper next time.

I didn't have any cilantro on hand, so I used parsley instead. The potatoes were still delicious, but I think they would have been even better with cilantro.

These potatoes were amazing! I've never had smashed potatoes before, but they were so crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The cilantro sauce was also delicious and added a nice freshness to the dish.
