Ingredients

• 2 pounds Baby potatoes
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 3 tablespoons Butter
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Chicken or vegetable broth
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0 to taste Additional salt (optional, for seasoning)

Directions

Step 1

Wash the baby potatoes and cut any larger ones in half so all pieces are roughly the same size.

Step 2

Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover them with water, and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 3

Drain the potatoes and set them aside to keep warm.

Step 4

In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.

Step 5

Sprinkle the flour over the butter and garlic, whisking constantly to create a roux. Cook the roux for 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 6

Slowly add the chicken or vegetable broth while whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Once smooth, stir in the heavy cream.

Step 7

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently, until it begins to thicken, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 8

Stir in the chopped dill, lemon juice, and black pepper. Adjust the seasoning with additional salt, if desired.

Step 9

Add the cooked potatoes back to the pot and gently toss them in the creamy dill sauce until fully coated.

Step 10

Remove from heat and transfer the creamy dill potatoes to a serving dish. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh dill, if desired, and serve warm.
