Description

Delight in these irresistibly creamy garlic sauce baby potatoes, a comforting side dish featuring tender baby potatoes bathed in a rich, velvety garlic cream sauce. Perfectly seasoned and garnished with fresh parsley, this recipe combines simple ingredients for a flavorful treat that pairs well with any meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes

  • 1.5 lbs Baby Potatoes (Tender and buttery)

Sauce

  • 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter (For richness)
  • 4 cloves Garlic (Minced, fresh is best)
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream (For a velvety texture)
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable or Chicken Broth (Low-sodium recommended)
  • 1/2 tsp Salt (Adjust based on taste)
  • 1/4 tsp Freshly Cracked Black Pepper (To taste)
  • 1 tsp Dijon Mustard (Optional for extra flavor)

Garnish

  • 1 tbsp Chopped Fresh Parsley (For garnish)

Instructions

  1. Boil the Potatoes: In a large pot, cover halved baby potatoes with salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 10-12 minutes until they are fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
  2. Sauté Garlic: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and golden, being careful not to burn the garlic.
  3. Make the Sauce: Stir in the heavy cream, broth, salt, pepper, and Dijon mustard if using. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for about 5 minutes until it thickens slightly, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. Combine Potatoes and Sauce: Gently fold the boiled potatoes into the sauce, ensuring each potato is well coated. Let the potatoes simmer in the sauce for an additional 2-3 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  5. Finish and Serve: Sprinkle the dish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, then serve the creamy garlic sauce baby potatoes warm.

Notes

  • Halve the baby potatoes for faster cooking and better sauce coverage.
  • Use low-sodium broth to control the saltiness of the dish.
  • Dijon mustard is optional but adds a nice tangy depth to the sauce.
  • This dish pairs wonderfully with roasted meats or grilled vegetables.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop.
