Boiling potatoes is not difficult. However, you have to wait quite a long time.
It takes at least 20 minutes for whole tubers to reach full readiness in boiling water.
However, the process can be sped up. Here's a way: cut the vegetables into small pieces, put them in a saucepan and immediately pour hot water over them.
True, this trick does not save much time.
Therefore, it is worth paying attention to another trick for speeding up the cooking of potatoes.
Secret additive
A product that allows you to quickly cook potatoes is butter. One small piece is enough.
You need to throw it into the pan immediately after the water boils.
In the bubbling liquid, the butter will instantly melt and immediately appear on the surface.
As a result, a layer will appear under which the potatoes will be ready much earlier than usual.
In terms of taste, potatoes cooked under an oil “film” are no different from a side dish prepared in the standard way.
The dish will be just as tasty, healthy and nutritious.
