How to Make Baby Potatoes With Chives
- Using a vegetable peeler, remove a thin strip of peel in a band around the center of each potato (optional, for visual appeal).
- Place the potatoes in a large saucepan.
- Cover the potatoes with cold water, ensuring they are fully submerged.
- Generously salt the water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 12-15 minutes. Cooking time may vary depending on the size of the potatoes.
- Drain the potatoes thoroughly in a colander.
- Return the potatoes to the saucepan.
- Add the butter to the pan.
- Gently stir the potatoes over medium heat until the butter is melted and coats the potatoes evenly.
- Remove from heat and stir in the chives, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Transfer the potatoes to a serving bowl and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
