jacket potatoes in microwave

I par boil jacket potatoes for about 10 - 15 minutes and then finish them off in a hot oven. It takes between 30 and 45 minutes in the oven depending on the size of the potato.

Our microwave is a Combination one and although it takes about 24 mins to do a good sized potato, the skins are crisp and the flesh is soft. I think it also depends on which potatoes you use. IMHP you can't beat a Marfona, usually from M&S.

Three minutes microwave then into the Remoska for up to an hour. No oil.
I often add some other item for the last twenty minutes or so.

I usually use Vivaldi spuds, from Sainsburys.

I pierce the potato, wrap it in kitchen foil for the appointd time, depending on its size and afterwards wrap it in tin foil for 5 minutes, because it is still cooking. The outside is soft but the innards yummy.
