Prepping
- Par Boil the potatoes ( Partially Cook the potatoes in boiling water but remove before they are cooked all the way through. I usually cut the Medium sized potatoes into half and if the potatoes are large I usually cut it into three parts, and pressure cook them. Usually to fully cook the potatoes it takes me 4 whistles, so here I turn of the flame in 3 Whistles, and let the cooker come to room temperature, I also always check using a knife if the potatoes are almost cooked or not, sometimes depending on the quality of the potatoes they can take more or less time) .
