Instructions

  • Begin by washing the baby red potatoes thoroughly under cold running water. Cut them into 1-inch pieces, quartering them or cutting them into 1/8ths if they are larger.
  • In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Once boiling, carefully add the cut potatoes. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
  • Once cooked, drain the potatoes in a colander and return them to the pot.
  • While the potatoes are still warm, add the 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter. Allow it to melt and coat the potatoes. Then, sprinkle garlic salt to taste.
  • Now, add the chopped fresh dill and Parmesan cheese to the pot. Gently toss everything together until the potatoes are well coated.
  • Transfer the Buttered Red Potatoes with Dill to a serving dish, and garnish with extra dill or Parmesan if desired. Serve warm.
