1. Start by microwaving for five minutes and then increase from there. It is done when it is fork tender. Don't over cook because you will never recover.
2. Here's the quick way: Scrub the potato, and prick several time with the tines of a fork. Place on a plate. Cook on full power in the microwave for 5 minutes. Turn over, and continue to cook for 5 more minutes. Split in half and add your fillings. You won't be hungry for long.
3. just poke some holes in the potato...stick it in the microwave for about 5 minutes...or until it is soft...then put the "fillings" on...they will melt.
4. MICROWAVE: Make holes in the potato with a fork, quite a few of them so the air can escape. cook for 8 minutes. Open with your fork and mash it up and add your fillings. OVEN: Wrap in foil, witha slice of butter, punch holes in it with your fork. Cook 30 min. open up and mash insides and add your toppings. ENJOY!!!!!!!!!
5. Put the patato in the microwave wraped in a damp papertowel for 8mins. Turning 1/2 a turn after 4mins. Take out and enjoy.!
6. Wash it and stab it with a knife. Microwave on full power for 5 minutes. Stab it to see if it is soft. If it is still hard put in for another 5 minutes. Pop in the oven for 30 minutes to crisp the skin or eat out of the micrwave if you cannot wait!
7. You wash it first ,then poke some holes in it,put it on a plate and microwave it for 4 minutes or push the baked potato button .
8. This is how I bake my potato,first I wash it off then i rub olive oil on it or you can use vegetable oil. Then I sprinkle salt all over the potato and put it on a cookie sheet and let it bake until the middle is soft. Which is proably about 30-45 mins. You can use this same method in a mirowave, I just perfer the oven. Hopes this helps.
9. Well here is the way I make my baked potato. First I wash it off really good, then polk holes in it in several places, (all over) with my fork tines. Then I put it in the microwave and push the baked potato button once, or if you don't have that button, 4-5 minutes. If you have a turn table then you don't have to worry about turning it over, if you don't have a turn table then..when it has cooked half the time..turn it over. After the time is up, either check with the fork tines if it is soft, or care fully(as it will be hot) squeeze it to see if it is soft. If it is not soft yet..cook maybe another minute. If it is soft at this point...take it out (care fully). With it on your plate, take a knife and cut it from one end to the other, and spread it apart. With your fork kind of "dig" up the insides of potato from both sides of it. Put butter on both sides, then start adding what ever else you want one it. Like cheese, sour cream, bacon bits, salt, pepper, etc...... And there you have it ....OH OK That done it, now you went and made me hungry for one. It think, I could have almost made one now for as long as it took me to write this..........lol Enjoy..
