2. Transfer potatoes to a baking sheet. Lay another baking sheet on top and press down to smash the potatoes. Drizzle with some olive oil and flaky sea salt, then toss well. Transfer to the oven and bake for approx. 30 min., flipping half-way through, or until very crispy.

Grating lime into the large measuring cup

3. In the meantime, slice red onion and add to a bowl with the juice of one lime, top up with boiling water until just covered, then set aside. Add cilantro, mint, remaining olive oil, zest of half a lime, juice of the remaining lime, honey, and a large pinch of flaky sea salt to a large measuring cup. Blend with an immersion blender until smooth.
