Ingredients
3 ½ to 4 pounds ''new'' red, waxy potatoes or 6 large Idaho potatoes
Salt, if desired
3 tablespoons butter
⅓ cup finely chopped parsley
Preparation
- Step 1
Peel the potatoes. If they are ''new'' potatoes, there should be at least 24. Leave them whole. If they are large Idaho potatoes, cut each of them into four equal-size pieces.
- Step 2
Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and add water to cover and salt to taste. Bring to the boil and simmer until tender, 15 to 20 minutes, depending on size. Do not overcook.
- Step 3
Drain and add the butter and parsley, turning the potatoes gently in the butter until they are coated.
