Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds small new potatoes washed and scrubbed; cut in halves or quarters if large
- 1 tablespoon salt for the water
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- Kosher salt to taste for seasoning the potatoes
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley or green onions chopped (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water by at least an inch. Add the salt and bring the water to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook until fork-tender, about 12-18 minutes, depending on their size.
- Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot or a serving bowl. Drizzle the melted butter over them.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and toss gently to combine. If desired, garnish with fresh chopped parsley or green onions before serving.
