A perfect baked potato has crispy skin and fluffy insides. Chef at Park Ascent, one of the Best Restaurants in Noida sector 62, will guide you how to get the perfect baked potato with the right kind of softness and crispiness.
A perfect baked potato is hard to beat. The outside is brown and crisp, coated in a crust of salt. Pierce the skin, and the fork gives way to a soft, fluffy interior. The aroma might be hard to resist eating the whole thing straight out of the oven, but if you take the time to top it with a pat of butter or a dollop of (cashew) sour cream, you won’t be able to deny that it was worth the wait.
Serve them as a hearty side dish, or load them up and call them dinner. You’ll love them either way!
How to Bake a Potato
Take any potatoes you want, you’ll just need olive oil and salt to make this baked potato recipe. Once you’ve assembled your ingredients, follow these easy steps:
1- First, preheat the oven to 425, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2- While the oven preheats, prepare the potatoes. Scrub the potatoes well and pat them dry. Afterwards, poke the potatoes with a fork a few times to create small holes across their surfaces.
3- Next, season the potatoes. Place them on the baking sheet and rub them all over with olive oil. Sprinkle them liberally with sea or kosher salt, and transfer them to the hot oven to bake.
4- Bake for 45 to 60 minutes, until the skins are crisp and puffy and you can easily pierce the potatoes with a fork. Use oven mitts to remove the hot baking sheet from the oven.
5- Finally, dig in! Allow the potatoes cool for a few minutes before slicing them open, fluffing up their insides, and topping them with your favourite fixings.
Potato Recipe Tips
Skip the foil! If you wrap the potatoes in foil, the potato skins will shrivel and soften in the oven. For the best results, leave the potatoes unwrapped.
Don’t skimp on the salt. Coating the spuds in salt makes the skins extra-crispy and flavorful. Plus, with a bit of the salty skin in each bite, you won’t need to worry about seasoning the potato flesh as you eat.
Know that the cooking time will vary. In the recipe below, I say to bake your potatoes for 45 to 60 minutes. This is a wide range, but I list it for a reason. The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the potatoes. Be ready to take them out of the oven when they’re fork-tender and their skin is crisp. The baking time will be longer for larger potatoes and shorter for small ones.
Enjoy this baked potato recipe as a meal on its own, or pair it with your favorite protein. For more such tasty meal visit Park Ascent in Noida, 4 Star Hotels in Noida for Wedding.
