Steps
Wash the potatoes and cut them in half. Cover with cold water and bring to a boil. Add a couple of tablespoons of salt just like when cooking pasta. The potatoes will absorb what they need so don’t worry about adding too much. Simmer for about 15 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked through but still hold their shape perfectly. Drain well in a colander and allow to dry off in their own steam for a few minutes.
While the potatoes are cooking start your onions. Heat up a large skillet over medium low heat, add a drizzle of olive oil and the sliced onions with a pinch of sea salt. Cook until the onions soften and start to caramelize around the edges stirring often. You can add a little drop of water to create moisture as needed and help them cook faster. Once the onions are done to your liking you can add the cooked potatoes.
Drizzle the potatoes with the olive oil and sprinkle with the paprika. Use a spatula to combine everything making sure the potatoes get coated evenly with the oil and paprika. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper and stir in the fresh parsley or herbs of your choice.
Optional: you can add more oil at this point if desired and continue to pan cook the potatoes a little longer to get some caramelization around the edges. Finish with chili flakes for heat and extra herbs.

Mihaela Popescu on 2020-05-21 (5 stars): Probably one of my most favorite recipes ever. There’s something about all the herbs and spices and the new potatoes that just truly deliver to the belly and the soul. Even if you didn’t grow up with these potatoes, this recipe is one for the books.
