Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds new potatoes
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0 for boiling water

Directions

Step 1

Wash the new potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt and pat them dry. If the potatoes are larger, cut them in half; otherwise, keep them whole.

Step 2

Fill a large pot with enough water to cover the potatoes and bring it to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water.

Step 3

Once the water is boiling, carefully add the potatoes. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for about 15 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender but not falling apart.

Step 4

While the potatoes are cooking, mince the garlic, chop the parsley, and dill finely.

Step 5

Drain the cooked potatoes in a colander, shaking gently to remove excess water.

Step 6

In the same pot or a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium-low heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute, stirring, until fragrant but not browned.

Step 7

Add the drained potatoes to the skillet. Toss to coat them evenly in the garlic butter.

Step 8

Sprinkle the chopped parsley, dill, black pepper, and a pinch of additional salt (if needed) over the potatoes. Toss gently to distribute the herbs evenly.

Step 9

Transfer the buttered and herbed potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with extra herbs, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
