Ingredients
1 lb (450 g) baby potatoes, washed and halved
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast the Potatoes: Roast the potatoes for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until they are tender and golden brown.
- Make the Sauce: While the potatoes are roasting, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Prepare the Creamy Sauce: Stir in the heavy cream and simmer for 3-4 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Add Parmesan: Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese until fully melted and smooth.
- Serve: Once the potatoes are done, transfer them to a serving dish. Pour the creamy garlic sauce over the roasted potatoes and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Notes
Adjust Garlic: Modify the amount of garlic according to your preference for a milder or stronger garlic flavor.
Consistency: If the creamy sauce thickens too much upon reheating, add a splash of cream or milk to restore its consistency.
