Notes

Make sure to dice the potatoes evenly for uniform cooking. You can add chopped onions or garlic for extra flavor. For a spicy kick, include a pinch of cayenne pepper or paprika. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat adding a splash of cream if it thickens too much.
