Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place the garlic halves on a sheet of foil. Set the thyme sprigs atop the garlic. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of oil over the garlic and thyme, and then wrap them tightly in the foil. Set the foil packet in a small baking dish and roast until the garlic is soft, about 35 minutes. Open the foil packet and continue roasting on the foil until the garlic is golden brown, about 10 minutes longer. Set aside.
Meanwhile, toss the potatoes with 3 tablespoons of the oil on a large baking sheet then arrange the potatoes in a single layer and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 20 minutes. Using a metal spatula, turn the potatoes over. Drizzle with the remaining 3 tablespoons of oil. Continue baking until the potatoes are crisp and dark golden brown on all sides, about 25 minutes longer. Transfer the potatoes and thyme to a platter. Serve with the roasted garlic.
