Ingredients
- 4 large baking potatoes (about 300g each)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- Butter, for serving
- Grated cheddar cheese, for serving
- Baked beans, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
- Scrub the potatoes clean and pat dry. Prick each potato several times with a fork.
- Rub the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
- Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for 60 minutes, or until the skin is crisp and the inside is tender when pierced with a knife.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Cut a cross in the top of each potato and squeeze the sides to open.
- Serve immediately with butter, cheese, and baked beans.
Tips
- For extra crispy skin, brush the potatoes with oil and salt again halfway through baking.
- Leftover baked potatoes can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven or microwave.
