Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 50 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake small new potatoes in the oven with their skins on whole? Prepare all the necessary ingredients.

2. STEP 2

   

   The skin of new potatoes is very soft and thin, so there is no need to peel it. Wash the potatoes thoroughly with a brush under running water. Place the tubers on paper towels or a clean kitchen towel to dry.

3. STEP 3

   

   Using a toothpick, make several holes in each potato. This is necessary so that the marinade is better absorbed.

4. STEP 4

   

   How to make a marinade? Pour 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil into a small container, add ground red and black pepper, and salt to taste. You can also add a pinch of hot chili pepper and any other spices you like. Mix everything thoroughly with a fork or teaspoon.

5. STEP 5

   

   Peel the garlic and pass through a press. Add garlic to the marinade and mix everything again.

6. STEP 6

   

   Place the potatoes in a plastic bag.

7. STEP 7

   

   Pour the marinade on top. Tie the bag and mix the potatoes with the marinade. This way it will be evenly distributed over all the tubers.

8. STEP 8

   

   Leave the bag of potatoes to marinate for 10-15 minutes.

9. STEP 9

   

   Line a baking dish with baking paper. Spread the potatoes evenly in one layer and place in a preheated oven for 30 minutes at 190°C, top-bottom mode. Next, change the mode to convection, increase the temperature to 200-210 degrees and bake until the potatoes are browned (about 10 minutes). Time and temperature are approximate, refer to your oven.

    How to make a herb dressing for new potatoes in their skins? Take parsley, dill and thyme (these herbs were used in the recipe, but you can take and combine absolutely any other herbs), wash in running water, dry, chop as finely as possible. Chop the shallots and peeled garlic using a knife. Instead of shallots, you can use young green onions.

11. STEP 11

    

    Add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and mix everything. While stirring, press on the greens and onions to release their juice, this will make it much more flavorful.

12. STEP 12

    

    Remove the finished potatoes from the oven (you can check readiness with a toothpick; it should easily pierce the tuber). Pour the flavorful dressing on top.

13. STEP 13

    

    Using a large spoon, gently toss the potatoes and dressing together.

I really love oven-baked small potatoes with their skins on whole! I always wait for the first new potatoes and bake them with different spices. The skin of such potatoes is thin, it contains many useful microelements, and after the oven it is also tasty. Following the recipe, I pricked all the tubers with a toothpick, my daughter enthusiastically helped me with this) It turns out that mixing potatoes with spices and oil is very convenient if you use a bag for this. And your hands are clean) The potatoes were all covered with marinade and left for about 20 minutes after that. I baked it in a glass form. The potatoes don't burn in it, so I didn't use parchment. I baked it as written in the recipe for half an hour and 10 minutes under the grill. The potatoes turned out excellent, golden, rosy, spicy! And for the dressing I mixed green onions, dill and unrefined mustard oil. I put it on top of still sizzling potatoes, the aroma is indescribable! Delicious!
