That sounds like a simple slow-cooker creamy potato dish! Here’s a recipe you can try that matches your description:
🥔 Slow Cooker Creamy Quartered Potatoes
🧾 Ingredients
- 2–3 lbs quartered potatoes (Yukon Gold or red potatoes work best)
- 1 cup heavy cream or milk
- ½ cup sour cream or cream cheese
- 2–3 cloves garlic, minced (optional)
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Optional: shredded cheese or herbs (thyme, rosemary, chives)
🔪 Instructions
- Prep the Potatoes
- Wash and quarter the potatoes. No need to peel unless you prefer.
- Make the Creamy Mixture
- In a bowl, mix heavy cream, sour cream (or cream cheese), garlic, salt, and pepper.
- Combine in Slow Cooker
- Place the quartered potatoes in the slow cooker.
- Pour the creamy mixture evenly over the potatoes.
- Cook
- Cover and cook on low for 4–5 hours or high for 2–3 hours, until potatoes are tender.
- Optional Finish
- Sprinkle shredded cheese over the top and cook another 10–15 minutes until melted.
- Garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
🌟 Tips
- For extra richness, use half-and-half or a mix of cream and chicken broth.
- Don’t stir too much while cooking; letting the potatoes stay coated keeps them creamy.
- Perfect as a holiday side dish or comfort food weeknight meal.
If you like, I can also give a 5-minute prep hack that makes this creamy potato side even more indulgent and silky, almost like restaurant-style scalloped potatoes, without any extra effort.
