The first step is: Heat up the oven.
Turn the oven on high heat (400°F, 200°C). The potatoes will cook uniformly and have a crispy exterior if you do this.
Next, get the potatoes ready.
To eliminate any dirt, give the potatoes a good washing under running water. Dry them off with a fresh towel. To ensure steam can escape during baking, pierce many holes into each potato with a fork.
Third, Add Seasoning to the Potatoes
Coat the potatoes with olive oil on both sides. Doing so will aid in the skin’s crispiness. Coat the potatoes equally with salt and black pepper by sprinkleing them.
The fourth step is to bake the potatoes.
Arrange the potatoes on the oven rack immediately, being sure to leave some space between each one to ensure they roast evenly. After 45 to 60 minutes in the oven, the potatoes should be tender enough to poke easily with a fork. Crispy exterior and fluffy, tender inside are the goals.
