Pretty spot on IMO, except for the potatoes. Those typically need a minimum of 10-15 min of their own boil before I throw in the craws.

Yeah, I usually use red potatoes, and throw them in roughly 10 minutes or so before the crawfish.

I misread at first and thought they said boil for 15 minutes too, but I believe they just meant that it may take 15 minutes to bring it back to a boil.

Which is what leads me to believe that she actually means 15 minutes of boiling them with the crawfish. New potatoes need at least that much time to get soft. Small ones can maybe do ok with 10 minutes.
