Step 2
Preparing the vegetables:
Step 3
Wash the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris. Cut them into bite-sized pieces, ensuring they are relatively uniform in size to ensure even cooking.
Step 4
Peel the carrots and slice them into rounds. Try to make the pieces similar in thickness so that they cook evenly alongside the potatoes.
Step 5
Thinly slice the onion and mince the garlic. These aromatic ingredients will add depth of flavor to our dish.

Cooking Process
Step 7
Now that all the ingredients are prepared, it’s time to assemble and cook them in your crock pot:
Step 8
Start by layering the potatoes, carrots, onions, and garlic in the crock pot.
Step 9
Sprinkle the dried rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper evenly over the vegetables. These herbs will infuse the dish with a delightful aroma and taste.
Step 10
Pour the vegetable or chicken broth over the vegetables. This will provide the necessary moisture and help create a flavorful sauce.
Step 11
Cover the crock pot and set it to cook on low heat for 6-8 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours. The extended cooking time allows the flavors to meld together, resulting in a mouthwatering dish.
Step 12
Once the cooking time has elapsed, give the vegetables a gentle stir to ensure they are well coated in the flavorful sauce. You will be greeted by the enticing aroma of perfectly cooked potatoes and carrots that are ready to be enjoyed.
