    Asian Sesame Smashed Potatoes. Baby potatoes boiled and basted in a soy maple, sesame glaze and topped off with green onions and sesame seeds. It's a perfect side dish.

    If you're looking for a recipe for smashed potatoes that is Asian inspired, this is it! It's very easy to make and requires minimal ingredients.

    My Asian smashed potatoes taste like crispy little potatoes with a soft interior flavoured with the saltiness from the soy and are naturally sweetened with maple syrup. The sesame oil and green onions elevate these little potatoes to the next level.

    It's a wonderful dish to prepare for guests. This recipe takes about 35 minutes of your time but if you make it in large batches, you can have it ready for meal prep.

      Made these on a whim, along with similarly themed chicken and broccolini. It was late in the day on a Sunday, but we had the ingredients on hand. We loved the smashed potatoes and will make again. Thanks for the idea!
