MAYONNAISE-ROASTED POTATOES
One more recipe from that little tin box I found high on a shelf today. I only recall making these once, when I first got the recipe from a magazine - what, 20 years ago? Don't know why I haven't ever made them again. Maybe that's when I lost the recipe box!

Steps:
- Place potatoes in a medium saucepan filled with cold water and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to simmer, and cook until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain, and let cool at room temperature.
- Prepare mint mayonnaise: Place egg, mustard, lemon juice, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in the jar of a blender; pulse until well combined. With blender running, pour in the oil in a slow, steady stream. The egg mixture will become thick and creamy. Pulse in mint until just combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve mayonnaise immediately with potatoes, or keep refrigerated up to 3 days.
LEMON POTATO SALAD WITH MINT
This light and refreshing potato salad is the antithesis of the usual, creamy, mayonnaise-based recipes. The mint and scallion add a bright, herbal flavor while the sprinkle of chile lends a kick. Make this the morning you plan to serve it and let it marinate at room temperature all day long. Or refrigerate for longer storage but be sure to bring it to room temperature before serving. Other herbs like cilantro, parsley, tarragon and sage can be substituted for the mint; adjust the quantity to taste.

BOILED POTATOES WITH BUTTER AND MINT
The chef April Bloomfield cooks from a place of profound hunger for good food: specifically, Birmingham in the Midlands of England, where she grew up in the 1970s and 1980s just as English food reached a low point. The childhood food she remembers most fondly: the hot buttered potatoes served in her school cafeteria. Her homage to that dish is this basic but stunningly good recipe for freshly boiled potatoes thickly glazed in butter and brightened with lemon, garlic, cracked black pepper and what she calls a "five-fingered pinch" of fresh mint leaves, "as much as you can grab with just the tips of all five fingers."

Steps:
- In a medium pot, combine potatoes and salt. Add enough cold water to cover the potatoes by a generous 1/2 inch and set the pot over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a vigorous simmer. Cook potatoes just until tender and creamy inside, 10 to 25 minutes depending on size.
- Reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid, gently drain the potatoes and return them to the stove. Add butter, garlic and reserved cooking liquid to the pot and set over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, swirling the pan and basting as needed so that the liquid coats the potatoes until they are well glazed, about 5 minutes.
- Tear the mint leaves into small pieces, stir them very gently into the potatoes, and take the pot off the heat. Squeeze on just enough lemon to add brightness, not sourness; taste as you go. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh mint leaves. If you don't have fresh mint, you can use dried mint, but reduce the amount by half.
- To make the mayonnaise extra creamy, use an immersion blender or a food processor to blend it until it is smooth and thick.
- If you don't have an immersion blender or a food processor, you can whisk the mayonnaise by hand. Just be sure to whisk it vigorously until it is thick and creamy.
- You can make the potatoes ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve them, simply reheat them in the oven or microwave.
- The potatoes can also be served cold. They make a great addition to a summer picnic or potluck.
Conclusion:
Potatoes with Mint Mayonnaise is a simple but delicious side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The creamy mayonnaise sauce, with its fresh mint flavor, perfectly complements the roasted potatoes. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
