Best Answer

Putting a lid on a saucepan cuts energy consumption of electricity or gas by about 2/3. It does nothing to increase the temperature but does slow evaporation. Raising the temperature can only be done by adding salt or by using a pressure cooker.

Start by cooking the potatoes covered for half the time. Check the casserole to see if it is too saucy. If it is, cook it uncovered, checking every ten minutes or so. When a fork can pierce the potato pieces easily and the temperature in the center of the casserole is 160 degrees F, it is done. Don't cook it uncovered the whole time because the top layer will get too hard and leathery.

No, what you do is you simmer them on a skillet, with olive oil and a little bit of butter.
