Cook Potatoes In Less Than 10 Minutes

If you're in a hurry and need your potatoes to cook, like STAT, then the microwave is your new best friend. All it takes is peeling and chopping the potatoes, then placing them in a bowl with 3 tablespoons of water. Cover the bowl with microwave-safe plastic wrap, and make a hole using a knife. Cook on high for 5 minutes, and your potatoes will come out soft and perfect!

You can also do the same thing with apples for a super-speedy apple sauce!
