Ok, I just want to say that I’m absolutely giddy about this recipe, well honestly it’s not a recipe but more like a simple how to, but imagine how gorgeous a platter of these pretty sage embossed potatoes would look on your holiday table!
I saw this in a BHG magazine on party foods, and I think this would be the perfect side dish to one of your holiday parties, it’s so eye catching!
First, get some fresh sage, I still have a ton growing in my garden, so I just went out and grabbed some.
Next, buy a bunch of those cute fingerling potatoes, wash them, pat dry, then cut in half lengthwise.
Toss them into a bowl and coat with olive oil, a little pepper and some good flaky salt like Maldon.
I had sixteen potatoes, thirty two halves and I used 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Take a baking sheet and line it with parchment paper, very important, you must line with parchment, now place one sage leaf on each potato half then quickly flip it over onto the parchment, the sage leaf will stick as it cooks.
Bake at 425 degrees for 15- 20 minutes, depending on your oven.
You’re looking for tender and golden, so lift a few up and check for that nice color just to make sure.
I’m in love with these beauties, they taste delicious and they’re insanely simple to make!
If I need to bring a dish to someones house, guess what? I’m bringing these!
Make them, you’ll be a rock star!

It’s been an interesting few days, the weather here has been crazy! Storms , power outages, no cable, no internet, it’s sad how dependent I am on all those things, 1 day without, I can handle, but 3, no way!! and to top it off we discovered a mama raccoon and 4 of her babies living somewhere under an eve on my roof! The hubbby has done a bunch of things to get rid of them, but unfortunately “They’re Back!!!” Any clever idea’s you might have to get rid of them would be much appreciated! (Thanks for letting me vent!)
Give these a try at your next party your guest’s will love them!
