1. I always cook potatoes 6 minutes full power.

2. I would cook them for four minutes and then check them...

Every two minutes until they reach what you’re looking for

3. I also cook small potatoes in the microwave.

These are typically the white rose or red rose potatoes; they're on the small side, but the larger ones also work.

Wash and place one or two of these in a microwavable (preferably glass) container with a matching lid. I add water up to about halfway in the bowl. Then I cook them on high for about 10 minutes. At that point, I remove the bowl from the microwave, and test the potatoes for done-ness. When they're tender to a two prong fork, they're done.

It looks more complicated than it really is. I have yet to have a potato come out less than done using this method.

4. I slice them and nuke them until they are as dry as potato chips!

7. what do they taste like?

My SO always wants me to make potato chips, but they never come out right in the oven and I don't want to fry them.

6. You can also nuke by doing it for 3 or 4 min. then cover them tightly and let set for 10 min while

Cooking the rest of the meal. I always add water too so they won't be too dry.

8. Cook on HIGH

And after a few minutes test if done using a fork. Also, poke them a few times with a fork before cooking so they don’t explode. Done when soft. Enjoy
