Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • Cast Iron Pan
  • Potato Masher
  • Oven
  • Brush

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs mixed petite potatoes
  • 1 cup white vinegar
  • 2 tbsp malt vinegar
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 2 tbsp butter unsalted
  • 2 tbsp chives fresh chopped
  • 1 tbsp pepper

Instructions
 

  • Wash and dry the potatoes.
  • Add potatoes, white vinegar, and salt into a large pot. Cover with water by 1 inch, and bring to a boil.
  • Once the potatoes are tender (about 15 minutes), transfer to a cast iron pan and coat with butter. Using a potato masher or the bottom of a heavy container, smash the potatoes into the bottom of the pan until flattened.
  • Bake the potatoes in a 500-degree oven for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through. Turn the oven to a high broil, and broil for 5 more minutes.
  • Brush the potatoes with the malt vinegar, and top with chopped chives. Serve warm.
