    Boil the new potatoes in salted water for 20 mins until fully cooked but not falling apart. Drain. Cool and keep chilled if making ahead.

    Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas 7. Line a large roasting tin with baking paper, add the potatoes, pat dry and lightly smash with the base of a mug. Drizzle with the olive oil and toss with the fennel seeds and some seasoning.
