Ingredients
- 2 pounds Baby potatoes (multi-colored, if available)
- 1 tablespoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 8 cups Water
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the baby potatoes well under cold water to remove any dirt. Leave the skins on for added texture and color.
Step 2
In a large pot, combine water and salt. Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat.
Step 3
Carefully add the baby potatoes to the boiling water. Reduce the heat to medium-high to maintain a steady simmer.
Step 4
Cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. To check, use a fork to pierce a potato; it should slide in easily without resistance.
Step 5
Once cooked, drain the potatoes in a colander and let them sit for 1-2 minutes to remove excess moisture.
Step 6
In the same pot, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Add garlic powder and ground black pepper, stirring to combine.
Step 7
Return the drained potatoes to the pot and gently toss them in the butter mixture until evenly coated.
Step 8
Transfer the potatoes to a serving dish and sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy your beautiful, flavorful Boiled Baby Confetti Potatoes!
