Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes are ideal for this recipe, as they hold their shape well and have a fluffy texture when cooked.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly. If the potatoes are cut too small, they will overcook and become mushy.
  • Soak the potatoes in water: This will help to remove excess starch and prevent the potatoes from sticking together.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to distribute heat evenly and prevent the potatoes from burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: If you add too many potatoes to the pot, they will not cook evenly.
  • Season the potatoes well: Salt and pepper are essential, but you can also add other spices and herbs to taste.
  • Cook the potatoes until they are tender: You can check this by inserting a fork into the center of a potato. If the fork goes in easily, the potatoes are done.
  • Serve the potatoes hot: These potatoes are best served immediately after they are cooked.
