Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon salt plus more, to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper plus more, to taste
Instructions
- Place the cut potatoes in a medium-sized pot and cover them with water, ensuring the water level is just above the potatoes.
- Cook the potatoes over medium heat, uncovered, for about 25 minutes, or until they are tender and can be easily pierced with a fork.
- Remove the pot from heat, drain, and stir in the butter, salt, and pepper until the potatoes are well-coated and the butter is melted. Adjust seasoning to taste.
