This recipe might sound simple but is delicious when prepared properly. Boil potatoes for 15 minutes and let them cool before dicing them into small pieces. In a pan, melt some butter with olive oil and add flaky sea salt, rosemary and thyme. Carefully add the diced potatoes to the pan so that they are not packed in too tightly. Sauté the potatoes on a low flame until they turn brown on all sides. Serve them garnished with some fresh chopped parsley.

This attractive baked potato dish is a must-try if you love garlic. Begin by making garlic butter — mix melted butter with smashed cloves of garlic, salt and pepper. Make deep cuts along the length of  potatoes and smear the garlic butter all over them, making sure it enters the grooves. Bake the potatoes for 30 minutes and then brush them with some more garlic butter.
