Equipment

3-quart slow cooker

Ingredients

▢ 24 ounces small new baby potatoes (washed)
▢ ⅓ cup vegetable broth
▢ 4 tablespoons butter (room temperature)
▢ 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
▢ 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)
▢ 1 tablespoon fresh dill leaves (chopped)
▢ 1 tablespoon fresh chives (chopped)
▢ ¼ teaspoon kosher salt (plus extra to taste)
▢ ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper (plus extra to taste)

Instructions

Grease a 3-quart slow cooker then add potatoes and broth (or water).
Cover and cook on High for 2½ to 3 hours or until the potatoes are tender.
Remove the potatoes and drain the juices from the pot. Place the warm potatoes back in the crockpot on low to keep warm.
Add butter, lemon juice, parsley, dill, chives, salt, and pepper to the crockpot and stir until the butter is melted. Toss to coat the potatoes. (Alternatively, you can melt it all in a small saucepan and then pour over the top.)

VARIATIONS: Use any combination of baby potatoes—gold, red, or purple. You can also use any favorite fresh herbs, any broth or stock, water, or white wine.
TIPS:
- Do not overcook potatoes, or they will turn quite mushy. The beauty of using these types of potatoes is that they are waxy and hold their shape better than starchy potatoes.
- For a decorative touch on a special occasion, you can use a peeler to remove the skin around the center of the potato—otherwise, toss them in unpeeled.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Please adjust any ingredient until you're happy - this is a totally adaptable recipe!
