Red Skin Potatoes

I do-it is pretty basic, but still very delicious. Take a large saucepan and place potatoes in it. (Make sure each potato touches the bottom, none of them are stacked.) Add enough water to fill the bottom of the pan, but not to fully cover the potatoes, probably about 1 inch or so. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer on medium low heat for about 7-10 minutes, or until potatoes are very tender. Drain. Transfer to a serving bowl and butter and parsley. (A little salt and pepper too, if you'd like.) Mix thoroughly. Serve. Enjoy!

I always make red potatoes, by cutting off the spots that have dents in them and cutting them up in dices, boiling them and instead of mashing them I just stir them, so there are chunks in it, and the some of the red skin is mixed in and I add some butter and garlic. It is really yummy.

Bake in oven drizzled with olive oil and spices!!
