Place potatoes in a medium sauce pot, and cover with water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. While the water is coming to a boil add salt and stir to dissolve.
Once the water comes to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook the potatoes until all of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
Let the potatoes rest in the pot for about 5 minutes, then toss in the pan and serve.
