Ingredients
  

For the Potatoes
  • 1 pound Baby Potatoes Tender and sweet; use small, similar-sized potatoes for even cooking.
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil Adds richness; can be replaced with melted butter for a different flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Enhances flavor; always season before cooking.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper Adds a mild spice; freshly cracked pepper is recommended for best flavor.
For the Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Butter Adds creaminess; can be substituted with plant-based butter for a dairy-free version.
  • 4 cloves Garlic Provides robust flavor; use fresh minced garlic for the best taste without bitterness.
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream Forms the base of the creamy sauce; for a lighter option, half-and-half can be used.
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese Adds umami and creaminess; nutritional yeast can be used for a vegan version.
For Garnish

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Creamy Garlic Baby Potatoes
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, toss halved baby potatoes with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure even browning.
  4. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, then add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  5. Lower the heat and stir in heavy cream, simmering for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened, then fold in grated Parmesan until smooth.
  6. Transfer roasted potatoes to a serving dish, drizzle with the creamy garlic-Parmesan sauce, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
