I am total rubbish at cooking potatoes using any method AT ALL.  So now I microwave them!

Its in the boiling. You have to watch them all the time during boiling and take them off the heat when they are just soft when pierced.

That's the problem then - no patience - I can't watch pots boiling - boring to the nth degree!

Oh I don't know - the stuff that turns from pink to white is quite interesting

Okay here is a silly think to sujest , I find a difference in how the 'boil' if i have a lid on them (lid on the boilling pot)they taste better.
And also boils quicker as you would imagine.
