Crispy Potato Salad

1kg baby potatoes
olive oil
salt and pepper
smoked paprika
half an English cucumber, sliced
1 small red onion, diced

Dressing:
60ml greek yogurt
30ml mayonnaise
5ml wholegrain mustard
15ml lemon juice
10ml dill, chopped

Preheat your oven to 200℃ and line a baking sheet with baking paper.
Fill a large saucepan with water and cook the potatoes until done.
Drain and cool slightly.
Crush the potato with the bottom of a glass by pressing down on it. It shouldn’t be thicker than 1cm once crushed.
Lay the potato on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle some olive oil over. Season with salt, pepper and smoked paprika. Flip the potato over and repeat.
Bake in the oven until crispy – about 20 minutes or so.
Make the dressing by mixing all the ingredients together. Set aside.

Easy Hash Browns

1 large onion
1,2kg potato, unpeeled
100g cheddar cheese, grated
100g mozzarella cheese, grated
10ml garlic salt
60ml butter, melted

Preheat your oven to 220℃ and line a 25cm x 37cm baking sheet with baking paper.
Grate the onion and potato on the coarse side of a box grater.
Transfer to a clean tea towel. Wrap the grated veg like a candy by twisting both ends. Hold the towel over a sink and wring it as firmly as you can to squeeze out any liquid.
Add the onion, potato, both cheeses and garlic salt to a large bowl and mix through.
Drizzle the butter over the mixture and now mix together with your hands so that all of the mixture is evenly dispersed and covered in butter.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking sheet but do not compact it by pressing down.
Bake in the oven for 40 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
Serve immediately.
