3 lbs red potatoes, unpeeled and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 8 medium) |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2-2/3 cup buttermilk |
fresh ground black pepper |
2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped, if desired |
Directions:
1. In 3-quart saucepan, place potatoes; add just enough water to cover. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 15 to 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender; drain.
