Potatoes are among the side dishes that housewives most often cook for.
This vegetable can be processed in different ways: fried, baked or boiled. The article is devoted to the third method of cooking.
Boiled potatoes have a considerable amount of health benefits and go well with both meat and other vegetables.
However, there is a problem: the product is cooked for too long. The cook has to stand at the stove for at least 20 minutes.
Sometimes the process is delayed, and it is possible to remove the pan from the stove only 30-40 minutes after the start of cooking.
However, there is a simple way to ensure that the potatoes reach the desired degree of readiness much earlier.
To reduce the time it takes to boil potatoes, you can use butter.
Take out the butter slice of the refrigerator even before the vegetable is cooked.
The fact is that before going into the pan, the oil should noticeably soften.
After the water boils, you need to put one tablespoon of butter in it. This will be enough for the potatoes to cook a few minutes earlier.
