Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic
- 3 tablespoons fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)
Instructions
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly. If the potatoes are larger, cut them in half for even cooking.
In a large pot, add the potatoes and cover them with cold water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water.
Bring the pot to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.
While the potatoes are cooking, finely mince the garlic and chop the fresh dill.
Once the potatoes are done cooking, drain them and set them aside.
In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Reduce the heat to low and return the potatoes to the pot. Gently toss them in the garlic butter until evenly coated.
Sprinkle the chopped fresh dill, black pepper, and an optional splash of lemon juice over the potatoes. Gently toss once more to combine.
Serve the garlic dill potatoes warm as a side dish for any meal.
