Description
Creamy Garlic Baby Potatoes are a deliciously simple side dish featuring roasted baby potatoes smothered in a rich garlic cream sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (450 g) baby potatoes, washed and halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast the potatoes in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and golden brown, turning them halfway through cooking.
- While the potatoes are roasting, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.
- Stir in the heavy cream and bring it to a simmer. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Remove from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
- Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish. Pour the creamy garlic sauce over the roasted potatoes and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Notes
- For a lighter version, you can replace heavy cream with half-and-half or a dairy-free cream alternative.
- Make sure to check the potatoes for doneness by poking them with a fork.
- You can add more cheese for extra creaminess if desired.
