Ingredients
- 500 grams new potatoes
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 200 milliliters heavy cream
- 100 grams blue cheese (crumbled)
- 1 clove garlic (finely minced)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper (freshly ground)
Directions
Step 1
Wash the new potatoes thoroughly, leaving their skins on. Cut any larger potatoes in half to ensure even cooking. Set aside.
Step 2
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the new potatoes and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
Step 3
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned.
Step 4
Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir continuously for about 2 minutes to thicken slightly.
Step 5
Add the crumbled blue cheese to the skillet, stirring until melted and fully incorporated into the cream. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 6
Gently add the cooked potatoes to the skillet. Toss them in the blue cheese cream until fully coated. Allow them to simmer together for 2-3 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Step 7
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the potatoes to a serving dish.
Step 8
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
