Herbed New Potatoes (Adapted from the Barefoot Contessa) Recipe #213402
These are the most wonderful potatoes. My family all really love them. How nice to have wonderful and easy in the same recipe. When new potatoes aren't available I have used the bags of very small potatoes available in any supermarket. This recipe is too good to be left for only one time of year!

40 min | 10 min prep
SERVES 6 -8
- 2 1/2 lbs small potatoes (white, Yukon or red)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 1/2-2 teaspoons kosher salt (we find 2 a bit too salty)
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- 3 tablespoons fresh herbs (your preference, parsley, chives, dill)
- Melt the butter in a large heavy bottomed pot.
- Add the whole potatoes, salt and pepper and toss well.
- Cook tightly covered 20 to 30 minutes over low-heat until fork tender. Don't overcook! (check at 20 minutes).
- Shake the pot several times to prevent the potatoes from sticking to the bottom or burning. *Don't remove the lid.
- Turn the heat off and keep the lid on for another 5 minutes.
- Toss gently with herbs and serve hot.
- Enjoy!
