10 sm. new potatoes (1 1/2 lb.)
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1/4 c. butter
1 tbsp. chopped parsley
1/2 to 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Drop 10 unpeeled new potatoes (1 1/2 pounds) into boiling water. Cook 15 to 20 minutes, until still just firm. Cool and peel.

Melt 1/2 cup granulated sugar slowly in a large skillet, until pale brown. Add peeled potatoes. Stir constantly over a low heat, making sure sugar does not become too dark a brown, lest it taste bitter. Turn potatoes so that all sides become evenly coated and pale gold. Add 1/4 cup butter. Toss gently. Remove potatoes from skillet and place in 1 1/2 quart casserole dish, sprinkle with parsley and black pepper and bake at 375 degrees for 40 minutes or until fork tender.
