Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 tablespoons melted butter or 3 tablespoons margarine
3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
2 medium potatoes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Pour melted butter or margarine in 8x11 baking dish.
  • Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over melted butter.
  • Cut potatoes in half lengthwise and place cut side down over butter/cheese mixture.
  • Bake for 30-35 mins or till tender.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are ideal for baked potatoes because they have a high starch content that makes them fluffy and tender when baked.
  • Scrub the potatoes thoroughly before baking to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Prick the potatoes with a fork to allow steam to escape and prevent them from bursting.
  • Brush the potatoes with oil to help them brown and crisp.
  • Bake the potatoes at a high temperature (400 degrees Fahrenheit) for the first 30 minutes to create a crispy skin.
  • Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit for the remaining cooking time to allow the potatoes to cook through.
  • To check if the potatoes are done, insert a fork into the center of a potato. If the fork goes in and out easily, the potato is done.
  • Let the potatoes cool for a few minutes before handling them to prevent them from breaking.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately with your favorite toppings.
