NEW POTATOES WITH 5-MINUTE MINT PESTO



New Potatoes with 5-Minute Mint Pesto image

This 5-minute mint pesto comes together in no time and perks up new spring potatoes, pasta, turkey sandwiches and even scrambled eggs. I like my pesto chunky, so this recipe uses less oil than most -- and lots of herbs. Mint is a powerhouse of flavor, so it's balanced by quite a lot of fresh parsley and tangy, salty Parmesan.

Categories     side-dish

Time 45m

Yield about 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 pounds small golden- or red-skinned potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes if larger than 1-inch in diameter (do not peel)
3 cups fresh parsley leaves (see Cook's Note)
1 cup fresh mint leaves
1/4 cup shelled dry-roasted pistachios
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
Kosher salt
1/2 cup (2 ounces) freshly grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a medium pot and add cold water to cover; bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium and cook until barely fork-tender, 12 minutes. Drain.
  • Meanwhile, put the parsley, mint, pistachios, oil, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor and process until finely minced (see Cook's Note). Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the Parmesan until blended.
  • Toss the pesto with the warm or room-temperature potatoes and serve.
