. Preheat the oven to 450F/230C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Place the potatoes in a large saucepan of cold water, bring to a boil and cook for a further 10-15 minutes until the potatoes are softened but slightly firm.

While the potatoes are cooking make the spice mix. Combine all the dry ingredients, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, and dried thyme in a bowl, and stir together.

Drain the potatoes and lay them on the baking sheet.

Using a fork, gently “smash” the potatoes to roughly flatten them.

Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over each potato.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes until the edges of the potatoes are beginning to crisp. Allow cooling for 5 minutes before serving.
