Christmas is the perfect time to start making these Creamiest No Mayo Parsley Baby Potatoes. Their homemade creaminess are a perfect reason to tell you why! The parsley brings out the best flavors in the creamy sauce and puts this recipe right on to my holiday season menu!
These parsley potatoes are the creamiest potatoes you’ll ever make, and all that without the mayonnaise! I hate the sticky, fatty feeling you get after eating store bought mayo and I’m always looking for ways to substitute it. This recipe is keeper, and you’ll be making it long after Christmas is over too.
Quick Walk Through: Creamiest No Mayo Parsley Baby Potatoes
Richa’s Top Tips To Make The Best Creamiest No Mayo Parsley Baby Potatoes
- I like to keep the skin on the potatoes because there is this earthy flavor that comes with skin-on potatoes that I absolutely love. But you can choose to remove it, if that’s not your thing.
- If you are a potato hater (I’ve never met one so far) then you can even try this with cauliflower or cottage cheese or even sweet potato. Anything goes with this creamy parsley sauce.
- Make sure to cook the potatoes until they’re just tender. Any longer and you’ll have a lumpy mess of potatoes that don’t hold shape.
- Always season and dress the potatoes while they’re still hot. This will make allow everything to stick better, resulting in lots of flavor.

Awesome …. Waiting to try it
Sure, I had some cheddar lying around so I used that Anirudh. But you can use any processed cheese.
Hey Richa! May I know which cheese have you used?
I’m really looking forward to Christmas this year too! Never tried the Cajun Potatoes, will go check them out!
This looks lovely and reminds me of the cajun potato from BBQ. I am sure this Christmas is going to be a memorable one for you dear ones with these awesome dishes.
