What are Garlic Potatoes?

While garlic potatoes can be made in several ways, this version involves slicing the potatoes before browning them in a pan with butter and then baking them in the oven until tender.

Pro Tips

• Choose potatoes that will hold their shape during the baking process such as Russet potatoes or Yukon golds.

• Make sure the potatoes are sliced into even thicknesses to ensure they cook evenly.
• If you don’t have fresh rosemary on hand, you could use thyme instead.

Can I Make Garlic Potatoes With Sweet Potatoes?

Unfortunately, sweet potatoes won’t work well in this recipe as they won’t crisp up in the same way as regular potatoes, and will become mushy during the cooking process.

Can I Use Dried Rosemary Instead of Fresh?

Yes, you definitely could! Keep in mind that dried rosemary won’t have the same robust flavor as fresh, though, so you may want to use more in this recipe to ensure you get that rosemary flavor.
