Prep Time: 15 minutes  |  Cook Time: 45 minutes  |  Serves: 4

Potatoes

• 4 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
• 3 Tablespoons olive oil
• 1/4 cup parsley, finely chopped
• 1 1/2 Tablespoons thyme, finely chopped
• 1 1/2 Tablespoons rosemary, chopped
• 2 pounds baby potatoes, (smallest ones left whole larger ones cut in half or quartered)
• pinch of fine sea salt and pepper

Sun Dried Tomato Cashew Cream

• 1 cup raw cashews, soaked in water 2 hours
• 3/4 cup water
• 1 cup oil packed sun dried tomatoes, drained
• 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 2 teaspoons harissa spice
• fine sea salt to taste

1. Preheat the oven to 375F
2. In a large bowl mix together the garlic, olive oil and fresh herbs. Stir in the potatoes and toss until evenly coated. Spread potatoes in a single layer on a prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until lightly browned and tender, about 45 minutes. Stir halfway through cooking.
3. Drain the cashews from the soaking liquid and place them into a  high speed blender with the rest of the ingredients. Blend on the high until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as necessary and taste test. Adjust seasonings if need be. If the sauce is too thick add water 1 teaspoon at a time.
