Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
- 6 cups water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1 whole bay leaf
- 1 whole garlic clove, crushed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Rinse and scrub the baby potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt. Leave the skin on for added texture and nutrients.
In a large pot, add the cleaned potatoes and cover them with 6 cups of water. Ensure the water level is at least an inch above the potatoes.
Add 1 teaspoon of salt, 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary, 2 sprigs of fresh thyme, 1 bay leaf, and 1 crushed garlic clove to the pot.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer the potatoes uncovered for 12-15 minutes.
Check the doneness of the potatoes by piercing them with a fork. They should be tender but not falling apart.
Once cooked, drain the potatoes in a colander, discarding the herbs and garlic.
Return the drained potatoes to the pot. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley, and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper. Toss gently to coat the potatoes evenly.
Transfer the herb-infused boiled potatoes to a serving bowl or plate. Serve warm, garnishing with additional fresh herbs if desired.
