2 teaspoon salt (2 teaspoons salt)
4 tablespoons olive oil (4 tablespoons olive oil)
2 shallots (2 shallots peeled and very thinly sliced)

Once ready, drain them and run cold water over them to stop the cooking process. (At this point the potatoes can be refrigerated for 2 days)

  • Add the potatoes and 1 tablespoon vinegar and gently toss over high heat for 3 to 5 minutes. Add the basil, salt, black pepper, and more vinegar to taste. Serve immediately.

Roasted Potatoes with Tomatoes, Basil, and Garlic image

Simple and light. The roasted tomato gives a light and tangy flavor which balances with the starchiness of the potatoes. Use a red or yellow potato for best flavor. Garlic, fresh basil, and a hint of rosemary add to the aroma. My girlfriend loves this as a side with chicken or pork.

6 to 8 medium Washington, Idaho or Yellow Gold potatoes
6 whole garlic cloves, peeled
Salt to taste
2 tablespoons virgin olive oil
1 1/4 cups warm milk
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil
Freshly ground white pepper
