2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley leaves
Directions:
Cover potatoes with 1 inch of water in stockpot or Dutch oven.

Drain; cool potatoes slightly and peel if you like.
Cut potatoes into 3/4-inch cubes (use serrated knife if they have skins) while still warm, rinsing knife occasionally in warm water to remove starch.
