Intro: I have used Red Potatoes here. You may use White or Yellow Potatoes. These are perfectly baked in a Microwave Oven. The taste & texture are exactly like they are done in a conventional oven.
Wash the Potatoes thoroughly. Prick them with a fork all around at least 6 times to avoid explosion. Note: If using new Potatoes, peel off one thin strip. *Do not peel off all the skin.
Place a paper towel on the Turntable. Now, place the Potatoes on top of the paper towel on the edges at least 2.5 cm/1 inch apart. Best to place one Potato on one edge of the turntable & the other Potato on the other edge. *Do not cover.
Note: Do not place the Potatoes in the middle of the turntable. The results may not be the same.
Select Power Level 8 (P8) & Set the Timer at 7 minutes. When done, let stand in the Microwave Oven for 5 minutes.
Take them out. Place on a plate. Smash slightly with the back of a spoon. Pour the melted Butter. Sprinkle Salt & freshly milled Black Pepper. Enjoy hot!
I served the Baked Red Potatoes with Celery, Corn Relish on the side & a dollop of Sour Cream. Sprinkled some Green Onions on top.
*Note: Cooking Time depends upon the Cooking Power/Wattage of the Microwave Oven - Mine is 1200 Watts.
