Homestyle Kenny Rogers Cheese and Garlic Potato

Kenny Rogers Cheese & Garlic Potato - Homestyle 

Kenny Rogers version:

Kenny Rogers Cheese & Garlic Potato - Original

 

One of the Kenny Rogers side dishes that I absolutely love is their Cheese & Garlic Potato. I love the tangy taste of the garlic and the right amount of creamy cheese to complement it. Ahhh… just writing about it makes my mouth water.

Mai also found it very yummy that she decided to recreate this side dish for us at home. Here’s how she made them.

 

Cheese and Garlic Potato ingredientsINGREDIENTS:

  • Baby Potatoes
    (For our recipe, Mai used about 20 small
    baby potatoes)
  • Butter – 1/2 stick, 100 grams
  • Evaporated Milk (keep cold) – 2 cups
  • Flour – about 4 tablespoons
  • Cheddar Cheese – 3 cups, grated
  • Parsley
  • Salt & pepper
  • Garlic Powder

 

 

PREPARATION:

  1. Boil potatoes for five (5) minutes or ’til they’re half-cooked.
  2. Melt butter on a separate pan.
  3. Add flour to the butter and stir for one (1) minute.
  4. Add cold milk to the mixture. Add one (1) cup at a time.
    Make sure the milk is cold to avoid lumps.
  5. Stir in low heat until completely mixed, then, add parsley.
  6. Add garlic powder. Stir for two (2) minutes.
    The amount will depend on how much garlic flavor you can take.
    Add about 1 teaspoon first and from there, you can add more if you prefer it to be more garlicky.
    Make sure you don’t put too much garlic powder. Otherwise, you’ll end up with a very bitter sauce.
  7. Remove sauce from heat, then, add 1 cup of cheese. Mix until the cheese melts.
    Add cheese and wait for it to melt again before adding the last cup.
  8. Cut boiled potatoes in half. Then, add to garlic cheese sauce.
  9. Add salt and pepper to taste.
    The amount will depend on how salty you want the sauce to be.
  10. You can serve Cheese and Garlic Potato as a warm or cold side dish.|


 

The end product is very close to Kenny Rogers’ Cheese and Garlic Potato. The difference was really all about the cheese we used. As soon as we find out exactly what cheese will be perfect to bridge that gap, we’ll update this recipe. But, it’s so yummy and cheesy already so I know you’d enjoy it!

The Cheese and Garlic Potato Mai made was creamy and a bit garlicky, that’s why I absolutely love it! If you try this at home, let us know how it goes.

Enjoy!!

    I cooked this recipe on my birthday and everyone at the office loved it! They’re requesting me to do it again today! :D BTW, I used Cheezwiz cheese spread instead of a cheese block. No need to grate, and it easily blends in the sauce. Yummy! Thanks for this recipe!

    My girlfriend and I really loves “Cheese and Garlic Potato” from Kenny Rogers so we're hoping we could find it't recipe online. And there comes your post answering our prayers :) , I can't wait to cook it for my GF and if I can copy the same exact taste, then we will cook this food more often.
