Buttered Potatoes

Today I want to share with you a quick side dish recipe: Buttered Potatoes. I often make these potatoes instead of mash when I don’t have a lot of time. They taste delicious and absolve the same purpose of mash: to soak up all the yummy sauce or gravy of the dish they accompany. And they are ready in less than 10 minutes! You can’t beat that, can you? I like to cook these potatoes in the microwave, to speed things up, but you could even boil them, if you prefer. They make a fantastic side dish for a busy night!
