  • Remove the lid and continue cooking for another 7/8 minutes until the milk is absorbed and the potatoes are tender. Cooking time may vary slightly depending on the type of potatoes and the size of the pieces. Check by piercing them with a fork.

  • Once cooked, sprinkle with finely chopped parsley and turn off the heat.

  • Serve the potatoes with freshly ground black pepper. Enjoy! Paola

  • If you want to prepare them a little in advance, I suggest cooking them halfway (until the lid is kept on, to be clear). Complete the rest at the last moment.
