Very good - neither the mint nor the orange were too overpowering. I may next time leave out the rind though. I also had problems browing the potatoes (they were boiled) perhaps they should be dried first.

These were great! I boiled baby golden red potatoes whole. The only problem I had was trying to brown them afterwards. I think if I make them again I'll skip that step. I enjoyed the orange flavor and would like to add more mint next time.I also added salt. Made for 1-2-3 hit wonders.

I was intrigued with the combination of flavors within this recipe and made it as a side dish to Jerk Chicken. I'm sorry but we just didn't enjoy the flavor of orange with the potatoes. I'm sure this is just a personal taste issue. Thank you Jewelies for sharing the recipe.

These were very good! A great flavour combination I would not have thought of, and very good for you. Next time, I would quarter or halve the potatoes. The leftovers are great too, the Beau had a great idea of making a light potato salad with them.
