or potatoes in their jackets!

Yes – this is hardly a recipe but it may be useful to those with little cooking experience.

Ingredients:
Large baking potatoes
Olive oil
Seasalt

Wash the potatoes well and then prick all over with a fork. Coat them with the oil and salt – messy but fun! Bake in the oven for about 1 hour and 15 minutes at 180C/360F. Alternatively you can cook these in a microwave in minutes (follow manufacturers guidelines for timing). Nice served with a green salad and your choice of topping or filling.

Suggested toppings: Baked beans, hummus, casserole, curry, rice salad, sweetcorn, stir fired veg – let your imagination run wild!!
