Wash and scrub the baby potatoes, then slice them in half.
In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion to the pan and sauté for 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and continue to cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Arrange the potato halves in the pan in a single layer, cut side down.
Pour in the vegetable broth and add the rosemary sprigs.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper.
Bring the broth to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let the potatoes braise for 25-30 minutes until tender.
Occasionally shake the pan gently to ensure the potatoes do not stick to the bottom.
Once cooked, remove the rosemary and discard.
Garnish the braised potatoes with chopped parsley before serving.
