Ingredients:
5 -10 small red potatoes ( amount varies according to your preference or the number of people who will be eating)
2 tablespoons butter (again, amount varies) or 2 tablespoons margarine ( again, amount varies)
chives ( enough to sprinkle on top of potatoes)
salt and pepper
6 cups water ( enough to cover potatoes and allow to boil)
Directions:
Bring water to a boil as you slice potatoes thick or thin, leaving the skin on. (I keep my slices “potato chip shaped” and not too think!).
Boil potatoes until tender (when a fork can be inserted with ease), about 15-20 minutes.
Drain in colander.
Place potatoes in a big bowl and add plenty of butter/margarine. (I use at least 2-3 tablespoons maybe more, depending on number of potatoes used and whatever our mood happens to be!).
Then sprinkle chives on top of potatoes to taste and for a little more color.
*Add salt and pepper to taste.
*Can add some bacon bits and shredded cheese on top or mixed if you like. I haven’t ever tried that, but sounds like it might be good.
