In a saucepan cover potatoes with water and bring to boil. Boil for 15 minutes or just until they are fork tender.

Drain potatoes and place on baking sheet. Press potatoes gently with a paper towel until flat, trying not to break potatoes (slight cracks are normal).

Turn potatoes over and brush with remaining olive oil, then sprinkle with remaining cheese mixture. Bake another 15 minutes.
