The Perfect Baked Potato!
I have spent along time trying to cook baked potatoes. I love them in restaurants but every time I cook them at home they are hard in the middle no matter how long I leave them in the oven.
Last night for the first time I got it right!
Here is what I did. I microwaved them first! Simple isn’t it, 18 minutes in the microwave, then 15 minutes in the oven at 200 degrees centigrade and they come out crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy inside.
Gerard and I enjoyed them with some chicken and pepper sauce, while Jake loved them with baked beans.
What culianry masterpiece shall I attempt next? Maybe I’ll learn how to poach an egg!
I am going to try that! I can never get them right either!
oh great, now i want a baked potatoa nd it’s all your fault my ass just grew. lol
Ooo, what a great idea!! I don’t like nuked potatoes because they lack the crispy crust, but it never occured to me to do both.
Thanks for this!!
Nice blog… it’s my first visit, but I’ll be back.
I think I may have over done it! I have had baked potatoes for the last three days, LOL!
Thanks for the compliment Dani, glad you like it! Hope to see you again.
Fantastic, yeah I tried what you advised and I agree it turned out great and using a new kitchen utensil I just got ‘potatopener’ I had the perfect baked potato.
