Bring to the boil and when the steam starts to escape from the lid, reduce the heat to medium and steam for 15-20 minutes until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a sharp knife. Larger potatoes might take a little longer. Keep an eye on the water and top up if necessary.
Serve dotted with butter and a sprinkling of salt.
