Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and dry the fingerling potatoes. Slice larger ones in half to ensure even cooking, but leave smaller ones whole.
Place the potatoes on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and toss to coat evenly.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fork-tender. Stir halfway through for even browning.
While the potatoes are roasting, prepare the goat cheese fondue. In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream and white wine over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not boil.
Peel and finely mince the garlic. Add it to the saucepan along with the fresh thyme, stirring to combine.
Lower the heat to medium-low and gradually add the goat cheese in small chunks, stirring constantly until smooth and fully melted.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and continue mixing until the fondue is silky and creamy. Adjust seasoning with a pinch of salt, if needed.
Transfer the goat cheese fondue to a small serving bowl or fondue pot to keep warm.
Arrange the roasted fingerling potatoes on a platter and serve alongside the goat cheese fondue for dipping.
Enjoy your Fingerling Potatoes and Goat Cheese Fondue as a delightful appetizer or shareable snack!
