Instructions
-
1Select potatoes of similar size—around 250 grams each.
-
2Wash potatoes well and cut out any bad parts. Do not peel.
-
3Cut every potato in two halves, in the direction that will produce the thinnest halves.
-
4Put ¼ to ½ tsp of salt onto the flat side of one half, and rub both halves together, so that they are both salted.
-
5Place the potatoes onto a greased pan, flat side down, and into the oven preheated to 220°C. The potatoes should be baked after 45 minutes. The flat sides should form a tasty orange crust.
-
6Serve hot. The potatoes can be peeled by hand while eating or eaten unpeeled.
