Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut any larger ones in half so that all the pieces are roughly the same size.
In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil and add the potatoes. Boil them for about 15 minutes, or until they are fork-tender but not falling apart.
While the potatoes are cooking, finely chop the fresh dill and mince the garlic cloves.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and set aside.
In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream, lemon juice, fresh dill, salt, and pepper. Mix until the sauce is smooth and well combined.
Return the cooked potatoes to the pot and gently toss them in the dill sauce until they are evenly coated.
Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with an additional sprinkle of fresh dill if desired, and serve warm.
