👨 🍳 Step-by-step recipe: perfect baked potatoes

✨ Ingredients:

  • 5-6 yellow-fleshed potatoes

  • Extra virgin olive oil

  • Come out, Pepe

  • Rosemary, garlic (optional)

  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar (optional, but recommended)

🥄 Procedure:

  1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into regular wedges or cubes.

  2. Blanch in salted water for 5-6 minutes (add vinegar for extra crispiness).

  3. Drain and dry well with a clean cloth.

  4. In a bowl, season with extra virgin olive oil, salt, pepper, rosemary and garlic to taste.

  5. Heat the pan with a little oil in a preheated oven at 200°C for 5 minutes.

  6. Pour the potatoes onto the hot baking sheet at a good distance.

  7. Bake in a static oven at 200°C for 40-45 minutes and turn halfway through cooking.

✅ Bonus tip: For perfect browning,
don’t use parchment paper: leave the potatoes in direct contact with the greased pan.

🧂 Do you want to vary? Try these supplements:

  • Smoked paprika or turmeric for a spicy touch

  • Parmesan cheese grated in the last 5 minutes to get a golden crust

  • Breadcrumbs mixed with the dressing for an extra crunch effect
