Buttered Red Potatoes with Dill
Description
Buttered Red Potatoes with Dill features red potatoes cut into pieces and boiled gently in salted water until tender. After draining, they are sautéed in butter with garlic salt in a pan to develop light golden browning, enhancing both aroma and flavor. Turning the potatoes during cooking helps achieve this gentle crisping.
Fresh dill is added towards the end to distribute its bright, herbaceous taste, with shredded Parmesan sprinkled on top to melt slightly and add savory depth. The dish combines creamy butteriness, tender potato texture, and herbal notes, making it a complementary side for many main courses.
This recipe requires simple ingredients and straightforward cooking techniques, suited for home cooks seeking a comforting vegetable side with minimal fuss but hearty taste.
Ingredients
- 2 lb red potatoes cut into 1" pieces, quartered or into 1/8'ths if larger, baby
- 1 tsp salt for water
- 4 Tbsp butter unsalted
- garlic salt to taste
- 2-3 Tbsp dill chopped, fresh
- 1/3 - 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese shredded
Instructions
- Fill a medium pot with cut potatoes and add warm water until there is 1/2" of water above the top of the potatoes. Stir in 1 tsp salt. Cover and bring to a boil and cook red potatoes at a light boil for about 10-12 min in salted water or until you can smoothly pierce potatoes with a fork. Remove from heat and drain well.
- In a large pan over medium heat, melt 4 Tbsp butter. Transfer potatoes to the buttery skillet then sprinkle with garlic salt to taste. Toss potatoes to coat them in butter and sprinkle again with garlic salt. Let potatoes sit undisturbed for 2-3 minutes then turn them and let sit another 2-3 minutes.
- Once potatoes are starting to turn golden on the second side, turn them and sprinkle generously with fresh dill and top with shredded parmesan cheese. Remove from heat and let the potatoes sit in the hot skillet to let the cheese melt a bit then serve.
