Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Wash and scrub the baby potatoes until clean. Halve each potato and place them in salted boiling water. Cook for 10-12 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a skillet, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden.
  3. Pour in heavy cream and broth, stirring to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer and let thicken for about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Mix in grated Parmesan, salt, black pepper, and herbs. Stir until cheese melts and sauce is creamy. Adjust seasoning.
  5. Gently add drained baby potatoes to the sauce and carefully toss to coat each potato evenly.
  6. Remove from heat, transfer to a serving dish, and garnish with parsley. Serve warm.
