Ingredients

  • 1.3 lb baby potatoes - see notes
  • 3 tablespoon salted butter
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 cup cheese - I use a mixture of monetary jack, mozzarella and gruyere

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 390ºF/200°C.
  2. Place the potatoes into a pan of boiling water and cook for 15 minutes or until they are almost cooked.
  3. Drain the potatoes well, then place the potatoes in a roasting tray (lined with cooking paper) and bake for 10 minutes.
  4. Melt the butter in a small pan and then crush in the garlic.
  5. Cook for 2 minutes on a low heat.
  6. Remove the butter from the heat and add in the salt and dried parsley.
  7. Remove the potatoes from the oven and use the back of a fork to squash the potatoes slightly. You don't want to crush them, just break the skins open so the butter can ooze in.
  8. Pour the butter mixture over the potatoes, then sprinkle over the cheese.
  9. Put them back into the oven for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and everything is bubbling.
  10. Serve with icy cold prosecco (and some napkins!)

Notes

  • I use baby potatoes so you can keep them whole. If you have bigger potatoes then they may need cutting in half or a longer cook time.
