Instructions
Boil the potatoes for about 10 minutes. They should not be completely cooked.
Peel the potatoes.
In a pan with high sides, or in a roasting pot, melt the sugar over medium heat. Keep an eye on the sugar at all times. It must not burn. Avoid stirring the sugar while it melts as it will crystallize.
When the sugar has melted into a caramel, add butter, water, cream, and salt. Let it boil until you have a uniform relatively thin mixture.
Add the potatoes and let them glaze in the mixture for about 10 minutes. The thin sugar mixture will gradually thicken and adhere to the potatoes.
When the browned potatoes are almost done, add a little freshly ground black pepper.
