Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs baby potatoes (or small waxy potatoes)
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- to cover water (for boiling)
Instructions
Rinse the potatoes thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. If using larger potatoes, cut them into evenly sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and add enough water to cover them by about 1 inch. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.
Drain the potatoes in a colander and let them sit for 1-2 minutes to allow excess moisture to evaporate.
In the same pot (or a large skillet), melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, return the potatoes to the pot.
Gently toss the potatoes in the melted butter to coat them evenly, being careful not to break them apart.
Sprinkle the finely chopped fresh parsley and black pepper over the potatoes, then toss again to distribute the parsley and seasoning evenly.
Serve the parslied potatoes warm as a side dish, and enjoy!
