How to Make Butter Dill New Potatoes:
Wash and quarter your potatoes
Place them in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil.
Once your potatoes are fork tender (can be easily pierced with a fork) drain them.
Here’s an option for a large over-the-sink strainer that will for sure hold all your potatoes!
Place your stick of butter or margarine in a microwave safe dish. Add a teaspoon of salt and add a teaspoon of dill.
Now we’re gonna microwave that just until the butter is melted. Stir that up a bit.
Pour the sauce over your potatoes.
Stir to combine!
Now you can serve your butter dill new potatoes from the pot or pour back into your bowl to serve!
Try serving them with pork chops and fried corn.

My 2nd son, who WAS my baby until 2 months ago (note baby crying in the background), is starting homeschool kindergarten soon. He’s not leaving me, but he’s still growing up and I know exactly what you mean!
By the way, you didn’t mention the tomatoes in your final picture! I live in northern Illinois and haven’t had a big, juicy, fresh from the garden tomato yet this year. It looks like a perfect summer meal!
My mouth is watering already…will be giving this a try soon!!
Now Christy….you take your quote today to heart…..and in your ‘difficult time’ of letting go of your last youngun, to the school system everyday…use that time to bring us even more recipes to try. I feel your pain…I had to let go of twins and that was added anguish….but I survived and you will too. Chin up girl!! Ü
Hi Christy ~Hugs~ my baby just turned 16 over the summer and will be starting the 11th grade if a few weeks. I don’t remember how many times I’ve heard hug’em while u can they grow so fast, it’s so true!! Lucky for me my Son still lets me get a hug in ever so often. Dill potatoes happen to be his favorite, I might just have to make these for dinner tonight. Thanks
I make these with parsley. You’re right, they are too easy and I feel like I should make something harder to be really cooking. My family asks for them though. A friend of mine had a baby every time the baby went to kindergarten! I think it would have been easier to bunch the kids up a bit but she hated an empty house too.
Don’t worry,,, I’ll call you every 5 minutes and ask you a question in a high pitched squeaky voice so it will be like Katy never left.
New potatoes with dill… Hmm.. I’ll try them. If Daddy don;’t like them.. I know The Little Orphan Dog will.. she will eat anything.
Won’t need anything else but the potatoes for me! I love new potatoes so much that I have to make myself slow down when I eat them to keep from getting choked. (Sadly, that has happened) That wouldn’t be quite so bad if I were a kid but I’m 47!
Hey Christy-here is a virtual hug for you as you send your young one off to school. I make something very similar but do a little rosemary in place of the dill. MMMMM!!! Thanks for all you do!!
