Boiled spuds take 8-12min, depending on the type of spud (floury ones cook quicker than waxy). Frying take quite a long time - a good 20min, turning them over every couple of minutes - and the spuds need to be dry before they hit the oil. You need to leave them to steam in the colander for a while.

ta. the recipes all seem to think that knowing how long to boil potatoes is intrinsic - I grew up on mostly rice and pasta. I've peeled with the best, but last night was first attempt at cooking the things.
