jersey royal potatoes

i’m not a big potato fan and rarely buy them but whenever jersey royals come into season i just have to indulge. these little potatoes, grown only on jersey, have a wonderfully buttery flavour.

my first taste of the season is always of potatoes which are simply boiled with some mint. a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a few extra fresh mint leaves is all i need. or is it? what do you do with your favourite potatoes?
