Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds baby yellow potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 ½ tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 6 ounces sliced leeks
  • 1 tablespoon of fresh Rosemary and Thyme - stems removed
Instructions

pre-heat the oven to 410
slice the leeks and place them in a bowl of cold water for about 5 minutes.
drain them and rinse them again in a colander, pat them dry and set them aside.
slice the baby potatoes in half and place them in a bowl toss them with oil and a little bit of sea salt and pepper to taste.
arrange the oil-coated potatoes on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake them until they are fork-tender which will be about 15 to 20 minutes.
while the potatoes are cooking, add the butter to a skillet and melt it over medium heat. Once the butter has melted add the sliced leeks with garlic and begin to caramelize them; this should take about 15 minutes.
add the chopped rosemary and the roasted potatoes; toss everything together and serve immediately.
Tips
  • Yukon Gold or larger yellow potatoes can be used in place of the baby potatoes. Cut them into chunks that are 1 ½ to 2 inches in size.
