My mum often served just boiled potatoes like this, due to growing up during rationing. They’re actually fine as long as they’re not over-boiled, and then when you get the Jersey Royals in season it’s an absolute crime to peel, chip, over-season or mash them.
I would probably add a little bit of butter and salt, but you’re right, the flavour potential of simple potatoes can be criminally undervalued sometimes. Particularly home grown or fresh new potatoes.
