Ingredients
- 500 g Baby potatoes
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 3 medium Shallots
- 3 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
- 2 large Garlic cloves
Directions
Step 1
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized halves or quarters, depending on the size.
Step 2
Place the potatoes in a pot of cold, salted water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook for about 8-10 minutes until they are fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
Step 3
While the potatoes are cooking, finely mince the shallots and set aside. Chop the fresh parsley and mince the garlic cloves.
Step 4
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the boiled potatoes, cut-side down, and cook for 6-8 minutes until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
Step 5
Push the potatoes to one side of the skillet and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Stir in the minced shallots and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they soften and caramelize.
Step 6
Add the minced garlic to the shallots and cook for another minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Step 7
Turn off the heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Stir in the chopped parsley, letting the butter melt and coat the potatoes and shallots evenly.
Step 8
Season the dish with salt and ground black pepper to taste.
Step 9
Transfer the potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with additional parsley, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
