Buttered potatoes are a classic dish that\u2019s as easy to make as it is delicious to eat. Also called melting potatoes or boiled potatoes, they\u2019re savory, cozy, and downright delicious! With only 2 basic ingredients, it's an easy recipe that's budget-friendly and can go with nearly any dinner.

The trick to these southern-style potatoes is the perfect cook time. You want to cook them just until they\u2019re fork-tender. <\/strong>Any longer and they will disintegrate. The cooking time will depend on the type of potato you use, the chunk size of your potatoes, and altitude. I personally prefer Idaho russet potatoes, but that\u2019s just because it\u2019s what my mom always used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mom would often serve buttered potatoes with fried pork chops<\/a>, salmon patties<\/a>, and roast chicken<\/a>. Add on one of Mamaw\u2019s Hoe Cakes<\/a> and sliced fresh garden tomatoes, and you're in sweet Southern dinner heaven!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
