Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 1 ½ pounds baby potatoes, halved
Sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Cooking
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Garnish
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Boil the potatoes: Place the halved baby potatoes in a medium pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 8–10 minutes until just fork-tender. Drain and set aside to remove excess moisture.
- Prepare the honey mustard sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, honey, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
- Cook the potatoes in the skillet: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the drained potatoes cut side down and cook without stirring for 4–5 minutes to achieve a golden, crispy crust.
- Flip and continue cooking: Turn the potatoes over and cook for another 3–4 minutes until the other sides are also crispy and golden brown.
- Add the honey mustard sauce: Pour the prepared sauce over the potatoes in the skillet. Gently stir to coat each potato evenly and cook for an additional 1–2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and cling to the potatoes.
- Finish and serve: Remove the skillet from the heat, sprinkle the potatoes with chopped fresh parsley, and serve warm as a delicious side dish.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, let potatoes cook undisturbed in the skillet to develop a better crust before flipping.
- You can opt to roast the potatoes instead of boiling for enhanced texture and flavor.
- Adjust the mustard-to-honey ratio to suit your preferred balance of tangy and sweet.
