1. ### Buttered New Potatoes with Leeks and Parsley Recipe
3. #### Introduction:
4. This recipe combines the creamy texture of buttered new potatoes with the subtle flavors of leeks and fresh parsley, creating a delicious side dish that is perfect for any meal. This dish is not only easy to make but also packed with flavor due to its use of herbs and vegetables.
6. #### Ingredients:
8. - **2 lbs small new potatoes** (about 18-20 medium-sized)
9. - **2 large leeks**, white and light green parts only, washed thoroughly
10. - **4 tablespoons unsalted butter**
11. - **3 cloves garlic**, minced
12. - **1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley**
13. - **Salt and pepper** to taste
14. - **1 tablespoon olive oil**
16. #### Instructions:
18. 1. **Preparation of Potatoes:**
19. - Rinse the new potatoes under cold water, then pat them dry with paper towels.
20. - Cut the leeks into thin half-moon slices, ensuring they are well-cleaned to remove any dirt.
22. 2. **Cooking Potatoes and Leeks:**
23. - Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the new potatoes and cook for about 10-15 minutes until tender but still holding their shape.
24. - While the potatoes are cooking, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté the leeks with minced garlic for about 5-7 minutes or until they turn translucent.
26. 3. **Finishing the Dish:**
27. - Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add 2 tablespoons of butter along with some of the cooking water (about 1/4 cup) to help steam cook the potatoes further.
28. - Transfer the sautéed leeks into the same pan as the potatoes, stirring gently to combine all ingredients.
30. 4. **Seasoning and Serving:**
31. - Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter along with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in chopped fresh parsley for a burst of freshness and color.
32. - Gently toss everything together until well coated and heated through.
34. 5. **Presentation:**
35. - Transfer the dish to a serving platter or individual plates, ensuring an even distribution of potatoes, leeks, and parsley.
36. - Serve immediately while the vegetables are still warm and the flavors meld beautifully.
38. #### Tips for Success:
39. - **Proper Cutting:** Ensure that all vegetables are cut uniformly to achieve consistent cooking times.
40. - **Washing Leeks:** Thoroughly clean leeks under running water or soak them in a bowl of cold water with a pinch of baking soda to remove any grit from between the leaves.
41. - **Fresh Herbs:** Using fresh parsley adds a vibrant flavor that complements the other ingredients.
