What is the best way to cook a baked potato?
Clean a large potato cover it in a couple teaspoons olive oil rub in about a teaspoon of salt PIERCE IT THOROUGHLY and put it in the microwave for 5-7 mins at full power. In the meantime, preheat your oven at its max temp Put it straight from the microwave into the conventional oven, bake until the skin is dark golden and crispy. To make the inside potato flully, put it in a bowl and cover it with a clean cloth. With a quick karate-chop motion strike your palm edge against the top so it splits. You must do this very fast or your hand may burn! Serve with the topping of your choice. I like 100g cottage cheese.
