Simple and Delicious Boiled Baby Potatoes

Looking for a incredibly simple side dish for the holidays, or an easy side dish for a weeknight meal? Although these boiled baby (or new) potatoes take very little work and ingredients, they look stunning and will please everyone at the table.

How to Make Simple Boiled Baby Potatoes

Start by selecting the smallest potatoes you can find. If they are not bite-sized, you may want to cut them in half. Make sure they are all roughly the same size, so that they boil at the same rate.

The key to making these baby potatoes look appetizing and festive is finding an assortment of blue, red, and yellow baby potatoes. I see these all over the place now, even at Aldi and Walmart. The fresh or dried parsley flakes you’ll add at the end lends a little pop of color that add to the holiday feel.

I’ve given a range on the seasonings, so you will have to taste and adjust to your liking. Our family really enjoys a sprinkling of grated Parmesan on the potatoes at the end, but it’s totally optional.
