Ingredients

• 2 pounds red bliss potatoes
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 0.5 cups heavy cream
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
• 0.25 cups parmesan cheese

Directions

Step 1

Wash the red bliss potatoes thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized pieces, leaving the skin on for added flavor and texture.

Step 2

In a large pot, add the potato pieces and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.

Step 3

Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook the potatoes for 12-15 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

Step 4

While the potatoes are cooking, finely mince the garlic and chop the fresh parsley.

Step 5

In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant.

Step 6

Stir in the heavy cream, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Heat the mixture gently, making sure it does not boil. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 7

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them thoroughly and transfer them back to the pot.

Step 8

Pour the buttery cream sauce over the potatoes and gently toss to coat all the pieces evenly.

Step 9

Sprinkle the fresh parsley and grated parmesan cheese over the potatoes, then toss again lightly.

Step 10

Serve warm as a side dish, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
