Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb new potatoes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 0.5 red onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
Instructions
Wash the new potatoes thoroughly and cut any larger ones in half to ensure they cook evenly. Leave smaller potatoes whole.
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the new potatoes and cook until just fork-tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped red onion and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant and softened, about 3 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds, being careful not to burn it.
Stir in the apple cider vinegar, honey, soy sauce, tomato paste, and water. Mix well to combine and create the sweet and sour glaze.
Season the glaze with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Add the cooked potatoes to the skillet. Toss gently to coat the potatoes with the sweet and sour glaze. Allow the potatoes to simmer in the sauce for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly and clings to the potatoes.
Remove the skillet from the heat. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
