Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 pound mixed small Yukon Gold and red new potatoes, scrubbed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons good olive oil
½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
Fleur de sel or sea salt
Directions:
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Place the potatoes and 1 tablespoon salt in a large saucepan and add enough water to cover the potatoes. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 17 to 20 minutes, until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a skewer. Drain the potatoes and place on a sheet pan. With a potato masher or metal measuring cup, press each potato until it’s about ½ inch thick (they will be messy). Toss the potatoes with the olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¾ teaspoon pepper.

Roast the potatoes for 25 to 30 minutes, turning once, until the skins have become nicely browned. Sprinkle the potatoes with the Parmesan cheese and roast for another 2 to 3 minutes, just until the cheese melts. Sprinkle the potatoes with the chives and fleur de sel and serve hot.

Make It Ahead: Boil the potatoes and smash them on the sheet pan. Roast the potatoes and finish the recipe before serving.
