Herby Potatoes

Forgive the hiatus, the past 2 weeks have been extremely busy, and I haven't had a chance to cook or blog much.

This is up there with the top three favorite things my mom ever taught me to cook. They're easy, they're cheap, and they're a crowd pleaser. Here's how:

Ingredients:

• 1 net bag of baby golden potatoes (or regular yukon gold, 3-4 large)
• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• 2 Tbsp butter
• 2-3 cloves garlic, minced finely
• 1 tsp fresh ground pepper
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1 sprig of fresh dill

Instructions:

1. Cut potatoes so that they are all the same size; roughly 3/4". Put in microwave safe bowl, and cover with water. Cook on high for 11-12 minutes, depending on the strength of your microwave.
2. In large skillet, melt oil and butter together on medium heat. Add garlic.
3. Drain potatoes and add to pan. Add salt and pepper.
4. Toss occasionally. When potatoes are fork tender, and golden brown, remove from heat. Toss potatoes with dill, and serve.
