Potayto Potahto

I've been waiting to post this, hoping that we would make it again with the beautiful new potatoes we find at our farmer's market--but alas, I missed it on Saturday with Father's Day preparations. So here is the fam recipe for Garlicky Potatoes.

• Small Potatoes (new or small yukon or red will work), halved or quartered to equal size
• Minced garlic, to taste (I recommend 2-3 cloves, depending on how sizable they are. And our cloves come pretty big.)
• Melted butter, about 1-2 tbs
• Olive Oil, about 1-2 tbs
• Sea Salt & Cracked Pepper, to taste

Simply toss the potatoes in the other ingredients, then spread them on cookie sheets. Bake ina hot oven (400 degrees) for 30-40 minutes, turning once, until they are soft throughout and golden on at least one side.

DO NOT COVER THEM to keep the warm. This will ruin the crispy edges you worked so hard for! (Or not so hard.) Just turn the oven off, making sure to keep the door closed. Ten minutes before you sit down to eat, pop them back in the warm oven. I should mention that they are equally good at room temperature.

Make this. Expect second or third servings.
