Baked Potatoes With Herb Butter Recipes

BABY POTATOES WITH BUTTER & FRESH HERBS

Steps:

• Boil potatoes: Place potatoes in a large pot of cold tap water with 1 tbsp salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower heat to medium so they're simmering gently (this stops skin splitting). Cook for 10 - 15 minutes until there's no resistance when pierced with a knife. Alternatively, steam the potatoes.
• Steam dry: Drain in colander then leave for a minute to let the potatoes steam dry (if wet, butter won't stick).
• Toss with butter: Transfer to a bowl, add salt, pepper and butter. Toss to melt and coat.
• Add herbs just before serving. Stir through, transfer to serving bowl and serve warm!

MIXED ROASTED POTATOES WITH HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Cut the potatoes into 2-inch cubes. Add them to a large pot, cover them with water and add salt to taste. Bring them to a boil, cook for 10 minutes, drain and cool. The potatoes will only be partially cooked and should be completely dry before you roast them.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Toss the potatoes with the canola oil and spread them in one layer on a baking sheet. Roast until crispy and cooked through, about 45 minutes.
• While the potatoes are roasting, make the herb butter: Mix the softened butter with the parsley, thyme and rosemary and add salt and pepper to taste.
• When the potatoes are done, put them into a large bowl, toss with the herb butter and serve immediately.

BAKED POTATOES WITH HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium.
• With a fork prick the potatoes 4 to 5 times, smear them with a little butter and sprinkle each potato with salt. Wrap in foil. Place the potatoes on the grill and cook for 40 to 45 minutes turning every so often.
• In a mixing bowl add butter, garlic, chives and pepper. Whip together until well incorporated. Take a piece of plastic wrap and lay it on the counter. Place the butter mixture on the plastic wrap and shape into a log or place the bowl in refrigerator covered to firm it back up. When your potatoes are cooked take butter out of the refrigerator, slice open the potatoes and top with herb butter.
