Lord D has been making these baked potatoes for years. His first job as a child in his parent’s Fish & Chip restaurant was chip cutter so potatoes are in his blood.
These potatoes take baked potatoes to a new level. A little more work than just popping potatoes in the oven, but they take less time to cook and look great on the dinner table.
Easy Baked Potato Upgrade
These potatoes take baked potatoes to a new level. A little more work than just popping potatoes in the oven, but they take less time to cook and look great on the dinner table.
Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes
- 3 tbsp. olive oil to coat
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- If you don't have the oven in use, preheat your oven to 350F. Scrub your potatoes and cut lengthwise. Lightly score the potato at a 45-degree angle across the cut side. Rotate the potato and score again.
- Coat the potatoes on both sides with olive oil. Sprinkle salt on the cut side or add your own favourite spices. We love smoked paprika.
- Place the potatoes cut side down on the oven rack. I place along the sides so I can be using the rest of the oven for the main course. Bake for 40 minutes or until the cut side has become golden brown.
