1 pound fingerling potatoes
Salt
Extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons freshly chopped parsley leaves

Directions

1

Place the potatoes in a pot, cover them with water and season the water abundantly with salt.

Bring to a boil and cook the potatoes until a fork slides in and out of them easily.
3

Drain potatoes and cool.
4

Coat a large saute pan generously with olive oil.
5

Add the onions, season with salt and bring the pan to a medium high heat.
6

Add the crushed red pepper flakes and saute for 7 to 8 minutes or until the onions are soft and wilted but do not have any color.
7

Using the heel of your hand, smash the boiled potatoes to flatten and to break apart.
8

Add to the pan, toss with onions and then flatten them against the bottom of the pan so they begin to form a crust.
9

Repeat this process a few times so a lot of crust forms.
