Delicious side dishes abound, but there is one in particular that manages to tempt everyone: baked potatoes. Unfortunately, they have only one big flaw. In fact, the preparation takes a very long time. For those who don’t know: It takes about an hour to achieve the perfect cooking result. That’s why we stopped cooking them.

But there’s a way to spend just 10 minutes, eh? Quite simply, thanks to the microwave and the baking paper that replaces the aluminum foil, which is not at all suitable for this device. Basically, if you stick to the recipe below, you can bring a dish to the table that far exceeds your expectations, because it is not only healthy and authentic, but also delicious. Undoubtedly, in this way you can tastefully accompany a good dish with meat (also grilled), fish, cheese or sausages. Once you try it, you won’t be able to miss it, because it is a high-quality preparation that pleases the palate.

The recipe for baked potatoes that cook in 10 minutes

Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
Total time: 20 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 1 stick of butter
  • 1 tbsp cheese (or sour cream)
  • 4-5 potatoes
  • wise
  • Marjoram
  • Rosemary
  • Timiano
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt
  • Pepper

Preparation

  1. First, take the potatoes and gently wash them under running water to remove any dirt residue.
  2. Now prick the tubers with the tines of a fork, without peeling them, so that when cooking they explode from the heat and ruin the dish irreparably.
  3. When done, take care of the herbs and spices, then wash and chop sage, marjoram, thyme and rosemary and finely chop.
  4. Now season your potatoes with the resulting mixture and then add about 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
  5. Now put the potatoes and spices on the baking paper (do not use aluminum foil, as this is very dangerous, as sparks can be generated in the microwave) and wrap everything tightly.
  6. Finally, turn the microwave to full power for 10 minutes.
  7. When the potatoes are ready, carefully open the foil, then cut into slices and season with a little butter, cheese, salt and pepper.
