    I agree with u.But as we have to toss it many times to avoid sticking to the pan , (potatoes looks like jumping) before properly cooked.Anyway thank u

    you did not mention why you called them jumping potatoes. after being properly cooked for this long, nothing can attempt to jump. ( leave alone the poor potatoes). recipe is very routine, nice and simple. give it a more inspiring name.
