To boil potatoes:
Scrub or peel potatoes as required. Slice in half or even-sized pieces.
Place in a heavy-based saucepan and cover with cold water. Place a lid on the saucepan.
Bring to the boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until tender when tested with the point of a knife. Drain.
The time of cooking will depend on the size of the pieces of potato.
