Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds baby yellow potatoes
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter

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.
