Jacket Potatoes
 
Do you do yours in the oven or Microwave or do you have your own method to share.

RileyH 19-01-2018 10:43 PM

Oven, of course.

Short spell in the microwave...then into the oven. Crisp on the outside and guaranteed soft in the middle.

smudgie 19-01-2018 11:48 PM

Can't stand them.
However it's a few minutes in the microwave and then finished off in the oven.

That's the right way but I do 'em in the microwave and they end up all wrinkled.:joker:

Oven definitely

I always used to do them in the oven, like GiRtH says, it's worth the wait. However, I ticked 'other', because I got one of these for Christmas:

It sits on top of my wood burner, the spuds come out perfect with crispy skin.

GiRTh 20-01-2018 01:19 PM

Thats a nice gadget. Does it cook them quicker and where can I get one?

No, it takes ages... but they taste amazing. So good in fact, that I'm doing baked potatoes tonight, now you've got me thinking about them.

You can get them online, they're not expensive, £25 ish? You can get them for 4 spuds too.

Oven unless I'm starving and cba waiting like 40 minutes

Thought they would still take ages but I still might get one they look good

Prick them with a fork all over then rub a bit of oil and then rub salt all over the spud for a crispy skin, some will insist on olive oil but vegetable oil is good to. Stick them in a oven on top heat and wait for an hour.

Crimson Dynamo 20-01-2018 02:42 PM

oven as microwaves dont cook them properly or do the skins and the skin is the best bit

Natalie. 20-01-2018 03:25 PM

Microwave, I don't like them done in the oven

Nicky91 21-01-2018 01:53 PM

Oven, but usually we just eat cooked potatoes, or baked potatoes
