Stove-top Steamed Potatoes

I always ignore the time to cook a recipe gives me when cooking potatoes. I cook them until they're done! Scientific...I know. The time they give always leaves the potatoes crunchy. And in the Smith household, we don't do crunchy potatoes. So in this recipe cook them to your heart's desire.

Ingredients:
2 lb new potatoes, cubed (or potato of your choice)
1/2 c butter
1/4 c water
1/2 t salt
1/2 t black pepper
1/4 c fresh chopped parsley (I left this part out)

Directions:
Melt butter over medium heat in a sauce pan
Add salt, pepper, and water
Add potatoes and coat with butter
Cover and cook on med-low for 30 minutes (ha!)
Roll the potatoes in the mixture periodically BUT DON'T UNCOVER THEM!
Sprinkle with parsley then serve
