- 1-2 pounds boiling baby potatoes
- salt & pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter

Wash and scrub the potatoes under running wate.
Place the potatoes in a medium pot or saucepan. Pour cold water and cover the potatoes by 1 inch.
Place on high heat and bring to a boil. Add salt.
Lower the heat to medium and boil uncovered for 12 minutes. If your potatoes are larger, you’ll need to boil for longer time.
Check doneness by inserting a fork. The center of the potato will be fork-tender when done.
Drain the potatoes. Serve with salt, pepper, butter, and optional parsley.
