Instructions
Cook potatoes
- Start boiling water in the medium saucepan and add sea salt to the water.

- Once potatoes are boiled, remove them from the saucepan.

- Next add cream and reduce the heat, cook garlic with cream for about 5 minutes.
Assemble the potatoes
- Add drained potatoes to this cream sauce. Use salt and pepper - just a bit, to taste.
- Add chopped parsley and mix well. Done!
