batatas novas
Até onde vão os meus conhecimentos de culinária, trata-se de batatas novas (no sentido de colhidas recentemente). Na Alemanha, p. ex., existem muitos tipos de batata para comprar e se distingue entre batatas "frescas", recém colhidas e aquelas mais antigas, de uma "safra" anterior.
Nunca vi fazerem distinção entre batatas no Brasil (além do óbvio: baroa, inglesa, doce e recentemente a roxa).

: em Pt-pt é assim que se designam....são as batates jovens, imaturas, novinhas, http://www.wisegeek.com/what-are-new-potatoes.htm, mas tem a ver com a idade e não com o serem colhidas de fresco!

Actually I decided to post as soon I got the question and didn't see your post. Otherwise I would have just added a note that I don't agree with batatinhas (although new potatoes normally are small).I had no intention to ignore your correct post.Sorry!

Reference:
Just as puppies are not a breed of dog, but (as anyone who ever had one quickly found out) baby dogs, new potatoes are not a type of potato, but immature potatoes of any variety. Contrary to popular belief, new potatoes are not necessarily red-skinned potatoes, any more than puppies are necessarily beagles. It may be that red-skinned potatoes are the most popular variety harvested early and sold as new potatoes, but you can certainly also purchase fully mature red-skinned potatoes.
