Ingredients
- 2 pounds Purple Majesty potatoes
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 cups Water
Directions
Step 1
Place the Purple Majesty potatoes in a large pot and cover with 8 cups of water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water.
Step 2
Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Step 3
While the potatoes are cooking, finely mince the garlic, chop the rosemary and parsley, and zest the lemon.
Step 4
Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot. Let them sit for 1-2 minutes to allow any excess moisture to evaporate.
Step 5
Using a fork, gently crush the potatoes to break them into rough, rustic pieces. Avoid mashing them completely to retain texture.
Step 6
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 7
Pour the melted garlic butter and olive oil over the crushed potatoes. Sprinkle with rosemary, parsley, lemon zest, black pepper, and an extra pinch of salt if desired.
Step 8
Toss gently to combine all the ingredients, being careful not to overmix.
Step 9
Transfer the potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with additional parsley or rosemary if desired. Serve warm.
