Squeezed Potatoes
Ingredients
Directions
Place potatoes in cold water and bring to a boil.
Cook until soft enough to pierce with a fork, then turn off the heat.
Add a little coarse sea salt and dry the potatoes on the stove.
Quickly remove the skins and wrap each potato in a dry, hot towel, twisting tightly for a second.
Serve hot in a napkin-lined dish.
