   Cover loosely with plastic wrap and microwave for 5-6 minutes.

4. 4

   At about the halfway point (~2.5 minutes), take the container out and shake to mix the potatoes.

   This ensures the potatoes will cook evenly.

    Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, and add chopped green onion to taste.

    I like it with lots of green onion.

12. 12

    It's great eaten as-is, but it's really good when spread on bread!

    Also great as croquettes or baked as gratin!
