Skillet Roasted New Potatoes

Total time: 30 minutes
      New potatoes are very thin-skinned, immature potatoes.  They have a short shelf life, usually only a few days before they start turning green and need to be added to the compost pile.  You probably can only get them at the farmer's markets - but try, if you can.  They're worth it.  If not, substitute the small 'creamer' potatoes. 

 Ingredients:

• 10 - 16 small new potatoes
• 1 tbs olive oil
• 1 tbs butter
• 1/4 tsp sea salt

 Instructions:

• Scrub the new potatoes but leave whole. 
• Heat oil in a medium, nonstick skillet over medium high heat. 
• Add new potatoes and sauté 5 minutes, shaking and rolling them about. 
• Reduce heat to low, cover partially and cook for 25 minutes, or until very tender. 
• When ready to serve, add butter, roll them around to coat, sprinkle with salt and serve.
