A baked potato with a crisp skin and fluffy centre is an easy base for a filling meal. This version uses a hot oven, olive oil and a simple savoury topping.
Method
- Scrub potatoes, dry thoroughly and prick them with a fork.
- Rub with oil and salt. Bake at 220°C for 50–65 minutes until a knife slides through.
- Split open and fluff the centre with a fork.
- Add beans, corn, yoghurt or grated cheese and finish with herbs.
Place potatoes directly on the oven rack for a drier, crisper skin. Do not wrap them in foil if crispness matters.
