Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams new potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Wash and scrub the new potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Cut any larger potatoes in half, keeping the smaller ones whole to ensure even cooking.
In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook for 10-12 minutes, until they are fork-tender but not falling apart. Drain and set them aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted and starts to sizzle.
Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet. Cook for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir in the maple syrup and fresh thyme leaves.
Add the cooked potatoes to the skillet and gently toss them to coat evenly in the glaze. Be careful not to break the potatoes.
Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the potatoes and continue to cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and the glaze has thickened slightly.
Transfer the glazed potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with additional fresh thyme, if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish to complement roasted meats, grilled vegetables, or other mains.
