Look, I’m not saying par-boiling potatoes in advance will change your life. But it will change your Tuesday dinner. Less stress, more crunch.
Do it for the crispy edges. Do it for the five extra minutes you’ll get to sip your wine. You deserve that.
So, yes, par-boil those potatoes. Tuck them into the fridge like a little secret. And when dinner time comes, you’ll be the hero of your own kitchen. No cape required.
Now go forth and spud. I’ll be here, probably eating one.
