Another Wat to Boil Potatoes
Ingredients
Directions
Wash the potatoes thoroughly.
Place them in a saucepan with cold water and cover.
Bring the water to a boil quickly.
Once boiling, pour off the water and cover the potatoes with cold water.
Add a little coarse sea salt.
When the water boils again, pour it off immediately.
Dry the potatoes and remove the skins before serving.
For new potatoes, boil for about 20 minutes to avoid water-soaking.
