Steps to follow:
1
The first thing you should do to steam potatoes is to wash them very well under the tap to remove any remaining dirt and grime. Take into account that steamed potatoes can be cooked both whole and cut into slices or pieces, for example, everything will depend on your preferences. In the event that you want to present them in slices, remove the skin with a knife or a potato peeler and give them the desired shape, ensuring that they are the same size so that they cook evenly.

Once you have the potatoes prepared, place a pot or saucepan with water. If you want to flavor the water with which the potatoes will be cooked you can add a glass of white wine and a bay leaf. Next, you must put just above the pot, a strainer that fits well and is large enough that boiling water does not touch it.
3
When the water comes to a boil, place the potatoes in the colander and cover them with a lid that fits perfectly over the strainer, this will ensure that the potatoes are done well and preventing the steam from escaping.
4
Let the potatoes cook for at least 20 minutes. After this time, remove the lid and check if they are tender by pricking them carefully with a fork. If so, your steamed potatoes will be ready to take off the heat and serve. Before serving them, if you like you can season them and sprinkle a little parsley.
