i love putting them in a roasting tray with a squeeze of lemon and some thyme ( dried is fine) and roast . gorgeous.
or roast with a few crushed garlic cloves and mixed dried herbs.
Also part boil them, then chop them into quaters and fry over in a bit of garlic butter or plain butter. they come out really crispy and devine.0 -
I steam mine, takes a little longer than boiling - about 25-30 minutes but the texture of the potatoes is much softer.
I'll never go back to boiling them ... unless it's for potato saladWhether you think you can or you can’t, you’re probably right ~ Henry Ford0 -
I leave them in their skins, toss in olive oil and sea salt and black pepper, then roast in a hot oven and the skins get lovely and crunchy - mini jackets!:j0

I part boil them in the microwave in their skins, then crisp up the skins in a frying pan with a bit of butter, and a dash of garlic crushed in at the last minute. Yummy!Trust me - I'm NOT a doctor!0

hiya, im looking for some advice from you lovely lot
i have soooooo many new potatoes in the garden that need using up but i have no idea what to do with them, we're getting fed up with eating them normally - boiled with some butter and mint. So if anyone can think of anything different i really would appreciate it, thanks :beer:

- Potato salad, with chopped onion and mayonnaise.
- sliced cold and fried to add to a cooked breakfast
- hassleback. Here's one recipe but you can just roast them like this and they look really prettyhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/hasselbackpotatoes_72995
- I like dauphinoise made from cooked potatoes: slice parboiled potatoes reasonably thinly, make a sauce by gently heating tub of creme fraiche, crushed garlic and a chicken cube, seasoned. Layer potatoes, adding some sauce and a sprinkling of grated cheddar at each layer, finishing with sauce and cheese. Cook for about 30 mins at 180 or so. This will freeze but may need a bit of milk added if it's dry.

I used my left over new potatoes as 'bombay potatoes' last night with a curry instead of rice.
Chop up, add some spices and thinly sliced onions and bit of oil and cooked in the oven for a bit...was yummy.0 -
Potato salad. Boulangere potatoes. In a fritata or Spanish omelette. In a keema curry. On top of a Lancashire hotpot.The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in my life.0
