Baked potato recipe

Baked potatoes so easy that they can be prepared by people with any level of experience kitchen.For the moment, we are going to reserve them (in fact, this step is optional, because many people prefer to leave the complete bundles, I have done that too, at least when I'm in a hurry).

The next thing will be to decide if the potatoes will be consumed with or without the skin. If you prefer the first case, you have to wash them well. If you are one of those who leave them without skin, then it is time to peel them.

Now let's cut the potatoes in half, lengthwise.

Then there's what to look for a refractory glass or ceramic resistant to the oven, or alternatively, a flexible mold for baking, or a tray.

In it we will arrange the pieces of potatoes, taking care that they do not overlap.

Next we will cover the pieces with vegetable oil threads. It is only necessary that it is olive oil if you are a fan of this flavor, and if it represents a difference in the recipe (in my case, yes, I love potatoes with olive oil).

Sprinkle the salt and pepper on the pieces of potatoes. Do the same with the paprika, if you decided to use it.

Then sprinkle the herbs they are dry or chopped, in the most uniform way you can.

Finally, distribute the leaves on the potatoes, more or less uniformly. Drop a thread of oil on the fresh leaves, so they do not dehydrate so quickly and release more aroma. If not, you will only get dried leaves in the oven.

Enter the container with the preheated baked potatoes. Let's bake them for 45 minutes.

Calculate half the cooking time, for open the oven and turn the potatoes with a kitchen spoon. If you prefer, you can do this step twice (calculating the time divided into three), to make sure that the potatoes are cooked evenly, especially if they are not all the same size.

After 45 minutes, the potatoes will be ready to eat 🙂

You can also prepare this recipe with a mixture of herbs mojo. In that case, chop the fresh herbs into small pieces and combine them in a cup with the oil and the dried herbs. Smear the potatoes with this preparation (without saving the oil, so they do not dry up), and ready, baked.

Other versions of the baked potato recipe

Potatoes baked with Indian spices

For this version of the recipe, we will keep the initial ingredients, but we will incorporate a mixture of spices, prepared with a tablespoon of turmeric, a teaspoon of curry coffee powder and a teaspoon cumin coffee maker. After mixing them in a cup, we will sprinkle these spices on the potatoes, when adding salt and pepper. This version of baked potatoes has a lot of flavor.

Baked potatoes with ham and cheese.

Cuts three or four slices of pork ham in squares, and distribute the pieces on the potatoes, before putting them in the oven.Calculate a cup of this cheese (two, if you're too fond of cheese) and spread it over the potatoes. You will adore the result.

Baked potatoes with bacon

This version of the recipe resembles the previous one, but instead of using ham, We will cut about five slices of bacon. You can decide to leave the part of the cheese, or omit it 😉

Baked potatoes with garlic

Do you remember the preparation of the mojo that we explain at the end of the recipe? principal? Well, we are going to use them for this version of the potatoes, and we are going to add three large cloves of garlic, crushed (and of course, previously peeled). They are going to suck their fingers.

In this case, I do not recommend using garlic powder at all, because it usually tends to burn when used in baked recipes, unless they contain a lot of liquid or fat.
