Try to get potatoes around the same size. Wash off the potatoes under lukewarm water using a vegetable brush, poke holes with a fork all over the potatoes. Wrap the potatoes in aluminum foil. Put the potatoes into a large pot, add enough water to cover the potatoes. Turn the flame to medium heat. Start testing the potatoes for doneness in 45 minutes. The potatoes are done when you can pierce them with a fork.
