Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Wash the Potatoes

    Rinse the red potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt. Use a brush if necessary to scrub the skins.

  2. 2

    Boil the Potatoes

    Place the washed potatoes in a large pot and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let them simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.

  3. 3

    Drain the Potatoes

    Once the potatoes are cooked, carefully drain them in a colander. Allow them to sit for a few minutes to let excess water evaporate.

  4. 4

    Melt the Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Alternatively, you can melt the butter in the microwave in a microwave-safe dish.

  5. 5

    Season the Potatoes

    Return the drained potatoes to the pot or a serving bowl. Pour the melted butter over the potatoes and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss gently to coat the potatoes evenly with the butter and seasonings.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Transfer the potatoes to a serving dish, and serve warm as a side dish. Enjoy your delicious new potatoes!
