Does the idea of peeling potatoes deter you from cooking them as often as you’d like? Try this trick.
Step 1: Cut the potato skin
Make a cut all around the potato, lengthwise. Try to slice only the skin, not the actual potato.
Step 2: Boil it
Put the potato in a pot of boiling water. Boil until it is soft inside

Step 4: Remove the skin
Rub the potato with both hands and watch the skin fall right off.
