Best Steamed New Potatoes With Mint And Parsley Recipes

EASY STEAMED PARSLEY NEW POTATOES

Steps:

• Clean the potatoes. If you were able to find the small ones, you won't have to cut them. Otherwise, cut the potatoes into fourths or halves, depending on their size.
• Place your steamer basket in a medium saucepan. Add water until just below the bottom of the steamer basket. You don't want the water touching the potatoes.
• Put the potatoes onto the steamer basket, cover the pan and place over high heat on your stovetop.
• When the water is boiling, turn down to medium-low heat and simmer for 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes. They are done when they can be pierced easily with a fork.
• Carefully uncover the pot and spoon the hot potatoes into your serving dish. Immediately add the oil and toss until all the potatoes are coated.
• Then sprinkle with the salt and parsley while tossing to distribute evenly.
• Taste and add salt or parsley if you feel more is necessary. And if you want to add pepper to your liking, now is the time.
• Serve hot!

HERBED NEW POTATOES

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a Dutch oven or large heavy-bottomed pot. Add the whole potatoes, salt, and pepper and toss well. Cover the pot tightly and cook over low heat for 20 to 30 minutes, until the potatoes are just tender when tested with a small knife. From time to time, shake the pot without removing the lid to prevent the bottom potatoes from burning. Turn off the heat and allow the potatoes to steam for another 5 minutes. Don't overcook! Toss with the herbs, and serve hot.

PARSLEYED STEAMED POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel potatoes and place them on the rack of a steamer over boiling water. Cover and steam them for 15 minutes or until done.
• Remove potatoes from rack and place them in a small skillet. Add butter, parsley, salt and pepper. Toss and blend well. Serve immediately.

STEAMED NEW POTATOES WITH MINT AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• In a steamer set over boiling water steam the potatoes, covered, for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are just tender. While the potatoes are steaming, in a bowl stir together the mint, the parsley, the butter, the sour cream, and salt and pepper to taste. Add the potatoes to the herb mixture and toss them well.

ROASTED NEW POTATOES WITH GARLIC

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Half the potatoes lengthwise and cut them into 1-inch-wide wedges. In a medium bowl, toss the potatoes with the butter and 1 teaspoon of salt. Spread the potatoes out on a roasting pan large enough to hold them in a single layer. (Arrange the potatoes cut-side down, to ensure crisply browned edges.)
• Roast the potatoes until golden brown, about 45 minute. Add the garlic and stir to coat the potatoes evenly. Continue to roast until the potatoes and garlic are evenly browned, about 15 minutes more. (Take care that the garlic doesn't burn.) Remove from the oven and mix with the parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve.

STEAMED POTATOES WITH THYME

Steps:

• Set a steamer basket in a large pot. Fill with enough water to come just below basket; bring to a boil. Place potatoes in basket; reduce heat to a simmer. Cover, and cook until tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Transfer potatoes to a medium bowl. Add oil and thyme; season with salt and pepper, and toss.

STEAMED NEW POTATOES WITH PARSLEY AND DILL

Steps:

• In a steamer set over boiling water, steam the potatoes, covered, for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are just tender.
• While the potatoes are steaming, in a bowl, stir together the dill, the parsley, butter, sour cream, and the salt and pepper to taste.
• Add the potatoes to the herb mixture and toss them well.

NEW POTATOES BAKED IN PARCHMENT

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Wash the potatoes in warm water to remove dirt or sand, then drain and blot. Put them in large mixing bowl. Add the olive oil, a generous amount of salt and pepper, the rosemary, thyme, sage and garlic cloves, and mix to coat.
• Arrange potatoes on an 18-inch round of baking parchment. Fold the parchment over to make a half moon, then fold and crimp the rounded edge to make a package, tucking in the end. It is O.K. if the package is not completely airtight. Place it on a baking sheet and bake for 45 minutes. Parchment will puff and brown as the potatoes roast within.
• Remove potatoes from oven and let rest 10 minutes. Open the package and sprinkle with parsley. Serve directly from the parchment, with a large spoon for the delicious oily juices.
