Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Coat a baking sheet with olive oil cooking spray.

Place the baby potatoes and a large pinch of sea salt into a large pot of water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a skewer.

Carefully drain the potatoes then place them on a paper towel. Gently dry the potatoes with the paper towel very well.

Place the potatoes on the prepared baking sheet. With the bottom of a metal measuring cup, press each potato until it's about 1/2 inch thick (they will be a bit messy).

Drizzle a bit of olive oil or a little butter on each baby potato then season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.

Place into the oven and roast for 25-30, gently flipping them halfway through cooking, until golden brown.
