Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs (680g) baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp dried thyme (or fresh)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

  • Boil baby potatoes in salted water until tender (~10-12 mins). Drain and set aside.
    In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant (~1 min).
    Pour in heavy cream, Parmesan, and thyme. Simmer until slightly thickened (~3-5 mins).
    Add potatoes to the sauce, tossing to coat. Cook for 2-3 more minutes.
    Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For a lighter version, substitute half-and-half for heavy cream.
  • Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
