Preparation
Step 1
Wash potatoes, prick lightly 2 or 3 times and cook them in the microwave for about 1/2 the time you normally would. I cooked 3 fairly large ones for 10 minutes in the microwave. You want to be able to feel a little give in the potato but not so much you can break the skin.
Remove from the microwave - CAUTION - They will be HOT! Then brush them will Olive Oil and sprinkle with salt. Bake in the oven at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes -
