French style potatoes sautéed in butter
Description
This recipe cooks whole Yukon gold potatoes by boiling them until fork-tender, allowing the starches to soften while keeping the structure for sautéing.

Salt is added for seasoning, highlighting the buttery richness and subtle sweetness of the potato.
