Ingredients

  • 500 grams Baby potatoes
  • 6 large Garlic cloves
  • 50 grams Unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Optional: Parmesan cheese (grated)

Directions

Step 1

Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and keep the skin on for added flavor and texture.

Step 2

Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil and cook the potatoes for 10-12 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

While the potatoes are boiling, finely mince the garlic cloves and chop the parsley leaves.

Step 4

In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt completely.

Step 5

Once the butter is melted, add the minced garlic to the pan and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let the garlic burn.

Step 6

Add the boiled potatoes to the pan and toss them gently to coat with the garlic butter mixture.

Step 7

Season the potatoes with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste. Continue cooking for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and slightly crispy on the outside.

Step 8

Remove the pan from heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley over the potatoes. For added flavor, optionally sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 9

Serve immediately as a side dish to complement your favorite main course!
