Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb daylily tubers
2 tablespoons butter, or more as needed
2 tablespoons olive oil, or more as needed
1 clove garlic, minced
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

Clean tubers of excess dirt and trim away any small rootlets that may cling to them. Cut off any green leaves or stems.
Add enough salted water to a large stockpot to cover the tubers; bring to a boil. Boil them like potatoes until they are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove pot from the heat and drain. Pour in enough cool or cold water to cover tubers and let sit for a few minutes until tubers are cool enough to handle.
Drain cool water from tubers and "peel" them by pinching one end and allowing the tuber to come out of its skin. They should look a lot like bite-sized chunks of peeled potato at this point.
Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until oil is shimmery. Add tubers and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
