Ingredients
- 4 large potatoes Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Step 2
Wash and scrub the Russet potatoes thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt.
Step 3
Pat the potatoes dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Step 4
Using a fork, poke several holes around each potato to allow steam to escape during baking.
Step 5
Rub each potato with olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated. This will help the skin become crispy.
Step 6
Sprinkle sea salt and black pepper over the potatoes, turning them to coat all sides evenly.
Step 7
Place the prepared potatoes directly on the middle oven rack. You can place a baking sheet on the rack below to catch any drippings.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 60 minutes, or until the skins are crispy and a fork can easily pierce the center of the potatoes.
Step 9
Remove the baked potatoes from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Step 10
Serve the baked potatoes with your choice of toppings, such as butter, sour cream, chives, or cheese, ensuring they are soy-free if required.
