Preparation

Step 1
Using a sharp paring knife, peel some skin off the potatoes, leaving a band in the center for color.
Step 2
Place the potatoes in a saucepan. Add water to cover, and add the caraway seeds. Salt to taste. Bring to a boil and simmer 12 to 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Step 3
Drain the potatoes and return them to the saucepan. Add the butter and the chopped coriander. Stir gently to coat the potatoes. Serve with the skate.
