Ingredients

  • 2tbsp butter, softened
  • 5 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 60ml olive oil
  • 1 kg small potatoes (floury, not waxy salad ones)
  • 1tbsp dried dill (preferably Bulgarian or Greek)
  • dill sprigs, to garnish

Method

Preheat the oven to 200C/180C F/Gas 6. Beat together the butter, garlic and olive oil in a large bowl and set aside.

Peel the potatoes and cut them into 2.5cm chunks. Add these to the bowl and toss to ensure all the potatoes are coated in the butter mixture. Arrange them in a single layer on a baking tray and scatter over the dried dill, turning them to dust evenly.

Roast for 45-60 minutes, until cooked through. Transfer to a serving bowl, season generously with salt and garnish with the fresh dill sprigs.
