Step 1

Peel the potatoes, cut into large cubes, place in a saucepan and cover with clean cold water. Let it cook over medium heat. After boiling, reduce the heat. Boil the potatoes for about 15 minutes, adding salt at the end.

Place the pots on a baking sheet and cover them with lids. Bake the dish in the oven, preheated to 180°C, for 20-30 minutes. The exact time will depend on the features of your oven and the size of the pots. My oven bakes slowly, I cooked for 30 minutes.
