Tips:

  • Use a variety of potatoes: This recipe calls for red potatoes, but you can also use Yukon Gold or russet potatoes. If you use a variety of potatoes, you'll get a nice mix of textures and flavors.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes: The potatoes should be cooked through but still have a little bit of bite to them. If you overcook them, they'll become mushy.
