    Why you are going to love Herbs de Provence Baby Potatoes and Tomatoes

    These little classic baby creamer potatoes and sunset wild wonders gourmet medley tomatoes are tossed together create their own little juice that you just can't get enough of. The potatoes are roasted and crisp on the outside and soft and creamy on the inside. The heirloom tomatoes have surrendered to the pan to just start to give away to a little of that precious fresh sweet tomato juice. If you want to kick this recipe up a notch, be sure to to slather a little Easy Herb Butter on top at the end of the cooking process.

    The summer harvest is coming to an end of the fall harvest is ready to begin (Spring harvest for our dear friends down under) and Herbs de Provence Baby Potatoes and Tomatoes is a great dish to transition with.

    It is amazing what a little garlic, dairy free margarine (butter) and Herbs de Provence can do for a dish. REALLY! Just 8 little ingredients and so much flavor.

    We added the butter and the tomatoes at the end of the cooking process and this is when all the magic happens. The butter browns....delicious brown butter...fragrant Herbs de Provence and the tomatoes begin to slightly burst and give up all of their delicious juices.

    We used the little baby potatoes and small cherry tomatoes in this dish to keep everything about the same size. However, you could certainly use large potatoes and cut to size and whole tomatoes but you may have to add a little time to the cooking process.

    If you do not have Herbs de Provence, you can and a little dried or fresh rosemary, thyme and oregano or even little basil to your Herbs de Provence Baby Potatoes and Tomatoes and it will be equally delicious. We have made it many different ways. I am all about using what you have on hand and not buying anything special to make a dish.

    We have also experimented with boiling and roasting the potatoes in advance and then waiting to finish the dish with a little butter and tomatoes right before company comes. This time-saving method works really well.

    Another time saver is using a deep frying pan with a lid instead of dirtying 2 pots/pans. Our frying pan is about 2 inches deep so we could both boil and also finish the dish in the same pan. (On a side note our lid does not match our pan so some steam escapes and it is perfect timing as when the 15 minute mark has arrived the water in our pan has completely evaporated.) Of course, that mis-fitting lid saves us the step of not having to drain the water from the boiled potatoes. Win-win!

    Plated on a brown wooden plate is the potatoes and tomatoes with fresh herbs sprinkled on top.

    Herbs de Provence Baby Potatoes and Tomatoes are dairy free, gluten-free and vegan. We used a little dairy free olive oil margarine for this dish. If you are not vegan or have dietary dairy issues then butter is best. For our low carb/diabetic friends, decrease the potato portion and increase the tomato portion or substitute potatoes with cauliflower.

    When the oven is in use for roasts and other dishes stove top dishes, Herbs de Provence Baby Potatoes and Tomatoes is a super delicious and easy side dish.

    Ingredients

    • 3 cups potatoes
      classic whole baby creamers
    • water
      enough to cover the potatoes or just until the very tips of potatoes peak through
    • salt and pepper
      to taste
    • 2 tablespoon olive oil
    • 1 teaspoon herbs de Provence
    • 1 tablespoon butter

    Instructions

    • Cover potatoes whole with just enough water so that the tips are peaking through and salt the water. Boil for approximately 15 minutes or until fork tender. (We used a 2 inch deep frying pan so that we could boil and roast the potatoes in just ONE pan.)
    • Drain water from the potatoes. Add olive oil, salt and pepper to taste and herbs de Provence to the pan. Roast and brown potatoes for about 5 minutes. Do not stir with a spoon or fork but instead just give your pan a toss to not break up the tender potatoes.
    • When potatoes are brown, add the garlic, tomatoes and butter. Lightly toss in pan for just a minute or two over medium heat just until the tomatoes begin to burst and the butter browns.
    • Season to taste and toss with fresh parsley and enjoy.

      At what temperature do you roast the potatoes?

        Hi Alane!The beauty of this recipe is that you can do everything in one pan on the stove top. Maybe we should exchange the word roast with toast in the pan. After you are done boiling your potatoes on the stovetop in a pan. Just remove the lid and finish the cooking procedure right on the stove top at a medium heat with the lid off. Just until they are little toasty and the tomatoes just start to soften. If you prefer, you can put the potatoes and the tomatoes in the oven at 375 degrees F for about 10 minutes or just until the tomatoes start to soften. Wishing you a super weekend ahead.
