How to cook New Potatoes

Boil

Place your potatoes in a pan and cover with cold water and a pinch of salt. Bring it to the boil and then reduce the heat and simmer for around 15 minutes or until cooked through.

Baked

Cut any larger potatoes in half to make them all roughly the same size. Spread them over a baking tray and coat with oil of your choice. Throw in some garlic cloves and rosemary and bake in the oven for around 40 minutes or until cooked turning them a couple of times.

Stove

Place new potatoes in a frying pan with some coconut oil and a splash of water. Cover the pan and cook on a low heat giving the pan a shake occasionally to help stop them stick. Cook until potatoes are tender in the middle (20 – 40 minutes depending on size).
