By jeknudson

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 lbs fingerling potatoes such as Russian Banana
• 1 1/2 cups water
• 3 Tbsp EVOO
• 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
• 3 T chopped chives
• 1 T chopped tarragon (rosemary is just as goood too)

Preparation

Step 1

Wash, peel (if desired) potatoes first, I did not. Slice length wise. Bring potatoes, water, 1/2 t salt and 1/4 t pepper to a simmer in a 10in nonstick skillet; then cover and briskly simmer, shaking occasionally, until potatoes are tender, 10-12 minutes. Remove lid and stir gently until most of water has evaporated and potatoes are glazed, 1-2 minutes longer. Stir in herbs and serve with butter if desired.
