Preparation

Step 1
Using a sharp knife, peel some of the skin, leaving a band for color.
Step 2
Place the potatoes in a saucepan, and cover them with water. Add salt, the parsley sprigs and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, and simmer for 15 minutes or until tender.
Step 3
Drain the potatoes, discarding the parsley sprigs and bay leaf. Add the butter, chopped parsley, cumin, salt and pepper to the potatoes in the same saucepan. Stir gently to coat the potatoes, and serve immediately.
