Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams baby potatoes
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 120 grams sour cream
- 2 tablespoons chives
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. You may scrub them gently if necessary.
Fill a large pot with water and add 1 tablespoon of salt. Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
Add the cleaned baby potatoes to the boiling water and reduce the heat to medium. Cook for about 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are boiling, chop the chives finely and set aside.
Once the potatoes are done, drain them thoroughly in a colander and return them to the pot.
Add the butter to the hot potatoes and gently shake the pot with the lid on to coat the potatoes with the melted butter.
In a small bowl, mix together the sour cream, garlic powder, black pepper, and half of the chopped chives.
Transfer the butter-coated potatoes to a serving dish and serve hot, drizzling the sour cream mixture over the potatoes and sprinkle with the remaining chives on top.
Serve immediately as a side dish for your favorite main course.
