Description

Tender roasted baby potatoes coated in a rich, creamy garlic Parmesan sauce. A simple and flavorful side dish perfect for any meal.


Ingredients

Units 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

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare Potatoes: Toss halved baby potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  3. Roast Potatoes: Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and tender.
  4. Make Garlic Butter: While the potatoes roast, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  5. Prepare Sauce: Stir in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.
  6. Add Parmesan: Remove from heat and stir in grated Parmesan cheese until smooth and creamy.
  7. Combine & Serve: Transfer the roasted potatoes to a serving dish, pour the creamy garlic sauce over them, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Substitute heavy cream with half-and-half for a lighter version.
  • Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a hint of spice.
  • For extra crispiness, broil potatoes for 2-3 minutes at the end of roasting.
