• Wrap each potato in a paper towel, put them on a plate and put it into the microwave.
• If using a 1200 Watt microwave:
• - set the timer to 2:00mins if you're using very small potatoes;
• - set it to 3:30mins for medium-sized potatoes;
• - set it to 5:00mins for large potatoes;.
• - set it 6:00 minutes for huge potatoes!
• Take them out from the microwave and leave them to cool for about 2 minutes We want to achieve firm, not mushy potatoes.
• In the meantime, start the oven at 350 degree fahrenheit.
