Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds new potatoes
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 teaspoons prepared horseradish
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the new potatoes well under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. If the potatoes are larger than bite-sized, cut them in half or quarters to ensure even cooking.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt to the water.
Bring the pot to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender but not falling apart.
Once cooked, drain the potatoes in a colander and set aside.
In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and prepared horseradish. Stir well until everything is combined into a smooth sauce.
Return the drained potatoes to the pot with the sauce. Gently toss the potatoes to coat them evenly with the lemon-horseradish mixture without breaking them.
Season the potatoes with salt and black pepper to taste. Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top and give one final gentle stir.
Serve the Lemon Horseradish New Potatoes warm as a side dish to your favorite main course or enjoy them on their own. Garnish with an optional lemon slice or extra parsley for presentation.
