I found this recipe on a pressure cooker website. It was written for a stovetop pressure cooker but I have an electric one so I tried with that. These are some of the best potatoes I have ever had. The simplicity really makes them amazing. You may use any type of fresh herbs but the rosemary was the ticket. I love recipes that are really easy and really good.
