Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs waxy potato
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- kosher salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons basil finely chopped
- 2 garlic chopped, cloves
Instructions
- Scrub the potatoes under cool running water, using a vegetable brush to remove any dirt.
- Halve any large potatoes so all pieces are a uniform size for even cooking.
- Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water.
- Set over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to low and simmer gently until potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes, taking care not to overcook.
- While the potatoes cook, finely chop garlic and fresh basil leaves. Blend together with olive oil to create a vibrant herbed oil.
- Once cooked through, drain potatoes thoroughly in a colander.
- Transfer to a large bowl and toss with the flavored oil, salt and pepper to taste.
Notes
- Adjust the cooking time based on the size of your potatoes.
