Salt Roasted Mini Potatoes with Garlic Sage Beer Butter. The most delicious appetizer you can make with just ten minutes prep!
Servings 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 3lbs box Kosher salt
  • 2 lbs mini potatoes
  • ½ cup salted butter or unsalted butter plus 1/8 tsp salt
  • 3 cloves peeled garlic
  • 4 fresh sage leaves chopped
  • 1 tablespoon malty beer Oktoberfest, Bock, Belgian

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425.
  • Sprinkle a layer of salt in the bottom of an 8x8 pan. Scrub potatoes, pat dry, and poke a few holes into each, add them to the pan on top of the salt.
  • Pour the remaining salt over the potatoes until mostly covered.
  • Roast for 45 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender. Remove from oven, allow to cool slightly. Break the salt pack, remove the potatoes, add to a serving dish.
  • Add the butter, garlic and sage to a pot over medium heat until the butter has melted, remove from heat, allow to steep for 10 minutes (this can also be done in the microwave).
  • Add the melted butter, garlic, and sage to a small bender or food processor along with the beer, blend until well combined. Re-heat the butter if it starts to congeal. Serve potatoes along with melted butter.

Notes

*Add more beer, if desired. If the beer butter is too bitter, add honey a teaspoon at a time to counterbalance the bitterness.
