Garlic New Potatoes with Herbed Sour Cream

These potatoes are fantastic! The garlic flavor is super, while the herbed sour cream gives a nice, cool contrast.


Be careful making the slits in the potatoes. You don't want to cut so far as to cut the potato into pieces. I found the original recipe here.

Makes: 4 servings
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 1 hour

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound red new potatoes
  • 5 garlic cloves, sliced thin
  • 4 T butter, melted
  • 2 T olive oil
  • Herbed sour cream (see below)

1. Preheat oven to 400 F.

2. Carefully cut parallel vertical slits in each potato, approximately 1/4" apart.

3. Place garlic slices between each of the middle 3 slits of each potato.

4. Toss potatoes in a bowl with butter and olive oil.

5. Place on a baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until potatoes are crispy and cooked through, about 1 hour. Start checking the potatoes after 40 minutes.

6. Serve topped with herbed sour cream.
