Preparation step by step

Total cooking time: 25 minutes

Preparation time: 10 minutes

Rest time: 0 minutes

Cooking time: 25 minutes

STEP 1: Peel and cut your potatoes into evenly sized pieces for uniform cooking.

STEP 2: Immerse the potatoes in a pot of salted cold water and bring to a boil.

STEP 3: Cook over medium heat for about 20 to 25 minutes until they are tender.

STEP 4: Check the doneness by piercing a potato with the tip of a knife; it should go in easily.

STEP 5: Drain the potatoes and let them rest for a few minutes before serving or seasoning them.

Mastering the cooking time of potatoes is essential to achieve a pleasant texture and tasty flavor. Depending on the chosen method, the cooking time varies: 20 to 25 minutes in water, 15 to 30 minutes steaming, or 8 to 12 minutes in the microwave. For quick and even cooking, cutting the potatoes into equal-sized pieces proves effective. New potatoes, on the other hand, will benefit from a low heat, requiring about 15 minutes of cooking. Thus, adjusting the cooking time based on the varieties and methods ensures optimal results for each preparation.
