1/2 cup sour cream

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)

1/4 cup chopped green onions or chives (for garnish)

1 tablespoon olive oil (for greasing)

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with olive oil to prevent sticking.

Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it evenly across the surface.

Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling.

Cool and Garnish: Once out of the oven, let it cool for about 10 minutes. Top with chopped green onions or chives for added flavor and a touch of color.

Serve: Cut into squares and serve warm as a delightful side dish or a hearty breakfast option. Enjoy your delicious Cheesy Cottage Potato Delight!
