Devour our Baked Potatoes recipe. 

Serves: 4
Preparation Time: 2 minutes
Cooking Time: 1 hour
Oven Temperature: 180° c  –  360° f

Step 1: You will need…

·       4 large potatoes
·       2 tbsp vegetable oil
·       sea salt
·       4 generous knobs butter, about 2 tablespoons each
·       1 bowl
·       1 fork
·       kitchen roll

Step 2: Preheat the oven

Set the oven to 180ºC (350ºF/ gas mark 4).

Step 3: Wash the potatoes

Place the bowl of potatoes in the sink and rinse them well under a cold running tap
turning occasionally to ensure they are thoroughly clean.

Step 4: Dry the potatoes

Put a piece of kitchen roll onto a flat working surface, place the potatoes on top and 
pat them dry with a second piece of kitchen roll.

Step 5: Pierce the potatoes

Take a fork and pierce each potato 8-10 times, all over. This releases the moisture
when cooking and stops them going soggy. Place them into a large bowl, pour over the oil and mix well with your hand.
Sprinkle over a generous amount of salt and mix well once more.

Step 6: Bake

Place the potatoes in the centre of the oven on a wire rack and bake for 1 hour
until they become crispy on the outside and fluffy and soft in the middle.

Step 7: VIDEOJUG TIP

Place a baking tray underneath, prelined with foil to catch any drippings and
to keep your oven nice and clean!

Step 8: Remove from the oven

Remove the potatoes when cooked and transfer them onto a large serving plate.

Step 9: Cut the potatoes

Make a long slit with a large knife across the potato but not completely to the edge.
Then make a slit downwards, to create a cross. Push the potato together to open it up and add a generous knob of butter.
Repeat with all four potatoes.

Step 10: Serve

Your potatoes can be served on their own or with a wide variety of toppings, like grated cheese or baked beans.

Tips from the world: In the UK, the baked potato is also called a Jacket Potato and its toppings include cheese and beans, but also tuna mayonnaise, chili con carne, chicken and bacon.
In the US they use butter, chives, cheese and bacon bits. The French variant sometimes comes with a whole meat dish.
In Sweden they make baked potatoes with a seafood mix, called Skagenröra. The Trukish ‘kompir’ is the most colorful type of baked potato: the toppings
can include
pickles, carrots, mushrooms, Russian salad, sausage slices, sweetcorn to name just a few. Feel free to experiment!
