Made good use of some of those fingerling potatoes this week. The in-laws came up from Ky for a visit and we made garlic roasted potatoes two nights in a row. Guess that says it all. No pic of the dish but here is how we do it.
-cut lots-o-fingerling potatoes into 1inch pieces
-peel even more cloves of garlic
-melt butter and olive oil in skillet over medium heat and throw in potatoes. cook 10 mins uncovered
-now throw in whole garlic cloves, cover and cook 15 mins.
-turn off heat, uncover, add crumbled dried sage, and salt to taste.
-EAT!
I made potato leek soup tonight (usually a winter staple in our house, but I had the potatoes and I had the leeks). It must have been sorely missed because the 6 year old went back for thirds.
-chop 1 leek
-cut lots-o-fingerlings into 1 inch pieces
-melt butter in soup pot and throw in leeks. Cook 5 mins
-throw in potatoes. cook 5 mins
-add your choice of stock to cover potatoes. Cover and cook until tender.
-add salt and pepper to taste.
-top with Parmesan cheese
Served with grilled cheese sandwiches and a side of dragon beans (cause we got' em coming out the wahoo).
