To me potatoes are just perfect family food. There’s just something about them that always brings back memories of Thanksgiving, Christmas, Sunday dinners, etc., all home cooked by Mom. But times have changed, and so have potatoes.

I knew as a young girl that there were roasted potatoes. And that was all there was to it. I had no idea that there were other types and that they were not only different, but that you couldn’t put certain potatoes in with other potatoes in recipes. For example, these brown butters Braided dill fingers. Read on to find out why.

What are fingerling potatoes?

Fingerling potatoes are low in starch and super creamy inside with a paper thin skin that crumbles perfectly in the grill. There are lots of different types of combination potatoes – red, yellow, purple, golden or a mixture of all colors.

What is the taste of fingerling potatoes?

After roasting, these potatoes have a mild, nutty, earthy flavor, and their texture is firm and moist.

Why use finger potatoes?

I mentioned earlier that you won’t want to substitute other potatoes in this recipe. This is because potatoes ring better than other potatoes because you leave them whole because they are so small. They become soft and tender inside while the skin becomes crispy and delicious. Fingers are also perfect for quick meals because you don’t need to peel them and they cook quickly.

The ingredients for potatoes with dill

One of my favorite things in Potato recipes is that you usually don’t need a lot of ingredients to make them tasty. This recipe only requires 7 ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:

• Butter: unsalted and used to fry the potatoes on the stove
• Potatoes with fingers: wash them but there is no need to peel them and you only need 1 kilo of them
• Kosher salt: used to flavor the fingers
• Black pepper: freshly ground
• Fresh Dill: You’re really going to want fresh dill here, but if you absolutely must use dried, use 1 teaspoon. You will also use part of the dill while the potatoes are cooking and the rest will be added at the end before serving.
• Garlic: adds flavor to the potatoes when they fry
• Salt of course: fleur de sel or kosher salt, used to season the potatoes right before serving

The measurements for each ingredient can be found on the recipe card at the end of this post. You can save or print the recipe from there as well.

What can you substitute for fingerling potatoes?

If you can’t find used potatoes, new potatoes are a similar substitute.

What is fleur de sel?

Fleur de sel is salt in its purest form. It is formed when sea water evaporates and leaves a thin film on the surface. It is so pure that it has no bitterness and adds a delicious flavor to food.

I’m going to guess that most people don’t have fleur de sel on hand, so any other coarse salt, including kosher salt, works just fine.
