Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt or impurities. Cut any larger potatoes in half to ensure all pieces are of a uniform size for even cooking.
In a large pot, bring 500 milliliters of water to a boil. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
Add the prepared potatoes to the boiling water. Reduce the heat to medium and cover the pot. Allow the potatoes to cook for about 15-20 minutes or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the creamy herb sauce. In a mixing bowl, combine the low-fat yogurt, minced garlic, chopped parsley, chopped dill, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and let them cool slightly for 5 minutes.
Transfer the cooled potatoes to a serving bowl. Pour the creamy herb sauce over the potatoes and gently toss to coat the potatoes evenly with the sauce.
Allow the flavors to meld for a few minutes before serving. Serve the creamy herb potatoes warm as a side dish to complement any main course.
