IHCC & CC#21: Braised potatoes and lettuce

Very simple ingredients, new potatoes (used whatever potatoes I had on hand), carrots, spring onions, cilantro (for garnish), vegetable broth (cube), water, salt and pepper!
Cook the skinned (or washed unskinned, if you prefer), quarter them, in vegetable broth (with carrots) till tender.  Do not use too much broth, the idea is to end up with well-reduced broth.  Add the lettuce and spring onions, cook for a couple of minutes more. Season to your taste with salt and pepper. Simple!

Braising them in broth sounds like a delicious way to prepare potatoes and they look so pretty and colourful.
