Ingredients
- Potatoes, any amount, skin on or peeled, as you wish*
- Water
Method
Place the potatoes in a pot and cover them well with cold water.
Bring to boil on max, reduce heat to medium and cook until potatoes are done.
Check for doneness by piercing them with a fork or a knife — it should go in easily with no crunch.
*Notes
- I don’t usually peel my potatoes, except for purées, I find it’s a lot of work for nothing. Make sure you scrub the potatoes thoroughly before boiling if not peeling.
