How to Bake a Potato in the Oven:
Pre heat your oven to 180°C / 350 °F / Gas Number 4 for about 10 minutes. Wash potatoes well and keep it aside. Slice those potatoes in to equal measurements width wise like the one you can see in the picture.
Take a microwave oven safe bowl and keep potatoes in it. Microwave these potatoes for 6 minutes. Take potatoes out of the microwave oven after 6 minutes and you can see that juice starts oozing out.
Meanwhile in a bowl add crushed garlic, white pepper powder, oregano, rosemary herb and salt. Mix it with a spoon. Add olive oil in to it. Mix all well. Brush these microwaved potatoes with the herbs, oil, pepper, garlic and salt mixture. Make sure that the mixture reaches all areas inside. Spread some salt on the top of it.
Line a baking tray with foil. Wrap these potatoes in it. Keep it in the oven. Bake potatoes for 45 minutes to one hour. Now your yummy potatoes are ready to serve.
My Recipe Notes on the Baked Potato:
- It is your choice here, either to leave the skins on or peel them off.
- Adjust salt as per your taste.
- You can use even Black Pepper powder instead of white pepper.
- Use Olive oil only to get a better taste or else you can use vegetable oil or butter.
- You can open the oven door after every 20 minutes and flip potatoes so that both sides bake well. It will prevent potatoes from browning on one side where they touch the oven rack.
- Sprinkle few drops of olive oil after you take potatoes out from oven.
- In between baking pierce those with a tooth pick or with a fork for checking its doneness.
- The outside skin will be dry and the inside part will be soft and will turn to a fluffy texture when potatoes are done.
- For baking potatoes, place the baking tray in the middle rack.
- Don’t use the sprouted potatoes as it can be toxic.
- Potatoes of same shape and size are better for baking as those will get cook evenly and fast.
- You can take it as a main course also.
