Related: About this forumI've just been gifted with a collection of small potatoes
Like these, about a third of them red. Too small to peel, obviously. I suppose I could cut them in two or three put them in a baking pan. Any other ideas?

(4,243 posts)but I'm sure it would work with plain and red mixed. Just cut them in half. You could double or even triple the recipe. I've made them before and they are excellent.
1 lb. potatoes
2 TBSP Diced Onion
2 TBSP Butter (melted)
1 TBSP Honey
1 tsp Dry Mustard
A pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper.
1. Preheat oven to 375. Lightly coat an 11x7 lined baking dish.
2. Place potatoes in a single layer and top with onion.
3. In a small bowl combine melted butter, honey, dry mustard, salt, and pepper. Drizzle over potatoes and onion.
4. Bake 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally.

(ed to add) Or just boil 'em all, slice, add toppings and plate.

(2,674 posts)Scrub em good, remove any bruises or bad places. Spray Pam in a shallow baking dish. Half any that are large. so all pieces are pretty much the same size. Sprinkle with a little season salt and pepper. Bake in oven at 375 degrees, I usually put foil over the top for about 15 minutes, remove foil and bake until potatoes are soft and starting to brown.
I have a some little red ones that I got at the farmers market, haven't cooked them yet, probably will tomorrow. Great with fish (salmon) or just about anything.

(9,842 posts)Make this with little new potatoes for the very best flavor, though it can be made with quartered Yukon gold or red potatoes. This creamy potato dish tastes great with chicken, fish, or steaks.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 to 2 pounds small new potatoes
1 to 1 1/2 c. fresh new peas or frozen
8 ounces small white onions, fresh peeled or frozen
1 1/2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 tablespoons. all purpose flour
1 cup milk or half-and-half
Preparation:
Scrub potatoes and cut in half if a little large. Peel the onions, if not using frozen. Put potatoes and onions in a medium saucepan and cover with water. Add 2 teaspoons of salt. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low and continue cooking for 10 to 12 minutes.
Add the peas to the potatoes and cook for 5 to 10 minutes longer, until potatoes are tender and peas are cooked. Transfer the vegetables to a colander to drain. In the same saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add flour and stir until blended. Add milk and continue cooking, stirring, until thickened. Add the drained vegetables to the sauce and gently stir to combine.
Serves 4.

When they are done add butter (lots! love butter) and some fresh dill and a wee bit of salt, cover and shake.
Very simple and very delicious.
