Recipe View 1 mins Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve immediately and enjoy!

For an extra layer of flavor, try roasting the garlic before mincing. Simply toss the garlic cloves with a little olive oil and roast at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until softened and fragrant.
If you don't have French onion dip on hand, you can substitute with sour cream or plain Greek yogurt, adding a pinch of onion powder and a squeeze of lemon juice for a similar tang.
For a richer flavor, brown the butter before adding it to the potatoes. Heat the butter in a saucepan over medium heat until it melts and turns golden brown with a nutty aroma. Be careful not to burn it!
Consider adding fresh herbs like chives or parsley for a vibrant touch.
