Preparation Steps
- Rinse the baby potatoes thoroughly under cool running water to remove any dirt.
- In a large pot, fill it with water and add a generous pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil, then carefully add the cleaned potatoes. Allow them to boil for about 5-7 minutes until they are just tender but still firm.
- Preheat your oven to 230°C (446°F).
- Transfer the parboiled potatoes onto a large baking tray lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat, then roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until golden and crispy.
- Gently smash each potato lengthwise using a spatula without completely breaking them apart to create more surface area for crisping.
- Drizzle smashed potatoes with more olive oil and sprinkle with kosher salt and ground pepper. Crumble feta cheese on top.
- Thinly slice the onion and distribute over the potatoes, then sprinkle dried oregano across the tray.
- Return the baking tray to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the feta melts and the onions soften.

Notes
Using high-quality feta cheese and ensuring the potatoes are not overcrowded helps achieve the best results.
