    My goodness! I didn't know how well lemons and basil would enhance the buttery nature of these new potatoes. This recipe provides a fresh way to present a dinner staple. My dinner guests remarked how delicious they were and seconds were the norm. This recipe is a real keeper. I have an idea I'll use this one for Thanksgiving.
