Step by Step Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 320ºF.
Step 2
Remove the stalks from the thyme and rosemary and add to a bowl. Add the olive oil and balsamic vinegar, mix then set aside.
Step 3
Add the butter to an oven dish, turn on heat and let butter melt, remove from oven, then add the herb mixture and the garlic and mix well with a spoon.
Step 4
Add the baby potatoes and ensure they are all coated in butter herb mixture. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Step 5
Place in oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until just fork-tender.
Step 6
Remove from oven and lightly crush potatoes with a potato masher (do not mash or over crush, it's best to do 2 or 3 potatoes at once to spread pressure evenly).
Step 7
Return to oven and bake another 15-20 minutes.
