Begin by cutting the small potatoes in half and washing them thoroughly.
Place the halved potatoes in a pot, add 1 teaspoon of salt, and pour in enough water to cover them.
Parboil the potatoes for about 15 minutes, or until they are tender inside.
Once done, drain the potatoes and set them aside.
In a separate pan, mix together the melted butter, Parmesan cheese, a pinch of salt, and hot paprika to create a flavorful base.
Spread this butter and cheese mixture evenly in the bottom of the pan.
Arrange the drained potato halves on top of the mixture, pressing them down lightly to ensure they stick.
Brush the tops of the potatoes with olive oil to help achieve a golden crust.
Sprinkle additional Parmesan cheese over the potatoes for extra flavor.
Bake the potatoes in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 20 minutes, or until they are crispy and golden.
Once baked, remove from the oven, garnish with fresh cilantro, and serve.
