Number Of Ingredients 4

1

russet potato

Kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

Butter, for serving

Steps:

  • Wash potato thoroughly and pat completely dry. Pierce 3 to 4 times with a fork.  Place potato on microwave-safe plate and microwave 7 minutes, turning over halfway through cooking. If your potato isn’t fork-tender after 7 minutes, continue microwaving in 1 minute increments until fully cooked. Let rest for 2 minutes.  Split potato down the middle, being careful of steam. Season with salt and pepper, and top with butter before serving.

Starting baked potatoes in the microwave and finishing them in the oven cuts cooking time and still yields crisp skin and fluffy potato flesh.

Provided by Terry B

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 russet potatoes, at least 8 ounces each ((see Kitchen Notes))
olive oil
coarse salt, such as kosher salt or sea salt
butter, sour cream, margarine or whatever toppings your heart desires

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375ºF. While oven heats, scrub potatoes under cold water, dry with a towel and pierce a few times on each side with a fork. Place potatoes on a microwavable plate and microwave for 6 minutes, turning halfway through the process.
  • Brush potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with coarse salt, pressing it gingerly against the potatoes (be careful, they are already hot). Bake on an open oven rack, with a lined baking sheet on a rack below (we like using our nonstick Cookina baking sheet liners, but foil or parchment will also work); the potatoes will drip just a little oil or moisture from the pierced potato itself, and you don’t want this to burn onto the oven floor.
  • Bake potatoes for 25 to 30 minutes, until they pierce easily with a sharp knife and the skins are crisp. Serve with your favorite potato toppings.

  • 1. Pre-heat oven to 450°F. Wash and dry potatoes. 2. With a fork or sharp knife, pierce each potato 2 or 3 times. 3. Rub each potato with a little oil (just enough to lightly coat) and salt generously. 4. Place on a cookie sheet or baking pan. Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork. 5. Wash and dry potatoes. 6. With a fork or sharp knife, pierce each potato 2 or 3 times. 7. Rub each potato with a little oil (just enough to lightly coat) and salt generously. 8. Place potatoes in a circle on a paper towel, leaving a 1-inch space between each potato. 9. Cook on HIGH for 15 to 20 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork, turning once during cooking and removing any that are done after 15 minutes. 10. Let potatoes stand for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. 11. Heat air fryer to 400°F.  12. Wash and dry potatoes, making sure that skin is really dry.  13. With a fork or sharp knife, pierce each potato 2 or 3 times. 14. Rub each potato with a little oil (just enough to lightly coat) and salt generously. 15. Air fry for 30-40 minutes until tender when pierced with a fork or internal temperature reaches 210°. Time will depend on your appliance, the size of your potatoes and how many you are cooking at once.  16. Place 1 cup water in the bottom of an Instant pot or pressure cooker. Place a rack or steamer basket over the water (water level should be lower than the rack). 17. Wash and dry potatoes. 18. With a fork or sharp knife, pierce each potato 2 or 3 times. 19. Rub each potato with a little oil (just enough to lightly coat) and salt generously. 20. Place the potatoes in the steamer basket and set pressure cook setting to high. Pressure cook on high for 16 minutes. If your potatoes are larger than 14 ounces, pressure cook for 20 minutes. 21. Let pressure release naturally for best results. 22. Optional: To crisp the skin, place potatoes directly on the rack in a hot oven, convection oven or toaster oven for a few minutes. 23. Notes: Make sure potatoes do not touch the water or they will get mushy instead of fluffy. Do not attempt to make this without water – pressure cookers need liquid to get pressurized.

  • Update! Newest Version: When I am in a hurry, and we need potatoes really fast for a meal, I zap a large potato with peeling on in the microwave until almost done, then I cut it into chunks. I use a cast iron skillet and put olive oil in it, not much, put in the taters and season them with the same seasonings as the fries (except the Parmesan cheese because it scorches). As soon as they are nicely browned, I remove them to a stainless steel bowl (it keeps them hot) and toss them with the Parmesan cheese. Voila! You have delicious "roasted" potatoes with your meal. Great with bacon and eggs, too!
