Instructions:
- Peel the potatoes (optional; you can also simply wash them well). Boil until tender, then allow them to cool to avoid burns. Gently press down on each potato with a spoon to crack it slightly, being careful not to break it apart.
- In a baking dish, pour olive oil and scatter garlic slices along the bottom.
- Place the potatoes in the baking dish. Season with coarse salt and sprinkle with rosemary.
- Drizzle approximately half a tablespoon of butter or olive oil over the top of the potatoes or individually coat each with olive oil.
- Bake in a preheated oven until golden brown.
- Serve hot, drizzling with additional aromatic oil.
Bon appétit!
