Ingredients
- 1000 grams baby potatoes
- 3 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme
- 2 large, peeled and crushed garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 whole lemon
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2000 milliliters water
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the baby potatoes thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Cut larger potatoes in half to ensure they cook evenly with the smaller ones.
Step 2
In a large pot, add the cleaned potatoes, rosemary, thyme, and crushed garlic cloves.
Step 3
Pour 2000 milliliters of water into the pot, ensuring the potatoes are completely submerged.
Step 4
Bring the pot to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cover with a lid. Let the potatoes simmer for about 20-25 minutes or until they are fork-tender.
Step 5
While the potatoes are cooking, squeeze the juice from half a lemon and set aside.
Step 6
Once the potatoes are done, drain the water using a colander. Discard the rosemary and thyme sprigs, as well as the garlic cloves.
Step 7
Return the potatoes to the pot and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the fresh lemon juice.
Step 8
Season with 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper and gently toss the potatoes to evenly coat them with the oil, lemon juice, and pepper.
Step 9
Transfer the potatoes to a serving bowl and serve warm.
