The First New Potatoes!



Michael harvested the first potatoes from the garden last night. I thought I would make some for dinner this evening, with lots of herbs from the garden.


Ingredients:

2 lbs fresh new potatoes
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley and dill
2 T butter or margarine
Salt and pepper to taste

Clean and scrub the potatoes, removing all dirt; cut in half or quarters depending on size. Place in a large pot and cover with water. Boil for 10-15 minutes until just tender; drain but leave about 1/4 cup of the cooking water. Put back on a low burner and add the butter to melt. Remove from the burner and add the herbs; season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a serving platter and serve.
