Sauteed Potatoes - potatoes

Method

• Peel the potatoes, and place them in cold water to inhibit discoloration.
• Remove, and cut into 3/4-inch cubes.
• Heat half the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat.
• Pat the potatoes dry; add half to the pan.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Cook, tossing frequently, until the potatoes are golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Add half the butter; as it melts, toss to coat the potatoes.
• Transfer to a serving plate; keep in a warm place while you repeat with the remaining oil, potatoes, and butter.
• When ready to serve, toss the potatoes with the chives.
