Baked Potatoes: Cooked With Microwave Oven
Baked potatoes have been popular in the UK for nearly 200 years. They are always sold on the street by hawkers during the autumn and winter months. It was estimated that over 10 tons of baked potatoes were sold each day. Now most of families have begun to cook it by themselves. Then how to bake a potato? Well, there are many variations among all related recipes that give different delicious tastes. I’d like to share some cooking experience with you. This one may be the most traditional method.
First, you need to prepare a Microwave Oven. And then get ready some required ingredients:
1 large russet potato
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
3 tablespoons shredded Cheddar cheese
proper-amount salt and pepper (if this is your first time to cook baked potatoes, you’d better put less rather than too more to eat.)
3 teaspoons sour cream
Steps:
1. Scrub the potato, and prick several time with the tines of a fork. Place on a plate.
2. Cook on full power in the microwave for 5 minutes. Turn over, and continue to cook for 5 more minutes.
3. When the potato is soft, remove from the microwave, and cut in half lengthwise. Season with salt and pepper, and mash up the inside a little using a fork.
4. Top the open sides with butter and 2 tablespoons of cheese. Return to the microwave, and cook for about 1 minute to melt the cheese.
5. Top with remaining cheese and sour cream
6. Serve
