Recipe notes
- This recipe works for any type of baby potato, including baby red skin, baby white, baby gold, and fingerlings. However, the cook times may be too long for marble potatoes, which are smaller.
- For potatoes smaller than 2-3 inches, start with half the suggested cooking time and add more as needed.
- No added water is needed for this recipe. The potato release enough moisture during cooking, and excess liquid comes from condensation.
- Microwave ovens vary, even with the same wattages. Adjust cooking times as needed.
