Garlic and thyme scalloped potatoes bring a savory depth to classic comfort food with the earthy aroma of thyme and the rich flavor of garlic. This recipe offers a lighter twist by incorporating light sour cream, making it a delicious yet healthier option for your family dinners or festive gatherings.
- Choose the right potatoes: Opt for starchy potatoes like Russets or Yukon Golds, which yield a creamier and tender texture after baking.
- Slice potatoes uniformly: Ensure the potato slices are even, ideally around 1/8-inch thick, to promote even cooking and prevent undercooked bits.
- Layering technique: For a well-seasoned dish, layer the potatoes and sprinkle a bit of thyme and minced garlic between layers before adding the sour cream.
- Cover while baking: Cover the dish with aluminum foil for the first half of baking to retain moisture and ensure the potatoes become tender. Remove the foil towards the end to achieve a golden-brown top.
- Rest before serving: Allow the dish to rest for 10 minutes after baking to let the flavors meld and to make it easier to serve.
Garlic and thyme scalloped potatoes are a delightful addition to any meal, offering robust flavors and a creamy texture. With simple ingredients and thoughtful preparation, you can serve a dish that combines classic comfort with a touch of gourmet finesse. Enjoy this warm, aromatic side dish with your favorite main courses for a truly satisfying dining experience.
