The Best Jacket Potato with Original Squeeze
It takes a lot for us to call any recipe ‘the best’, but we’ve worked our way through all of the techniques to find the perfect jacket potato. This recipe will give you a crisp skin with a deliciously fluffy centre that gets even better with a squeeze of Primula cheese. Here’s how to make the best jacket potato, ever!
What you need
- 4 floury potatoes (Maris Piper or King Edward)
- Olive oil
- Flaked sea salt
- Filling of choice
- 140g tube of Primula Cheese
How you do it
Preheat oven to 220°C/gas mark 7.
Wash the potatoes well, dry them and prick a few times with a fork.
Rub a small amount of olive oil onto the potatoes and scatter with salt.
Place directly onto the top oven shelf and bake for 20 minutes.
Reduce the oven temperature to 190°C/gas mark 5 and bake for a further 45-60 minutes or until the skin is crisp and golden and the centre is fluffy and soft.
Remove from the oven and cut a slit along the centre.
Add your chosen filling and top with Primula Cheese.
And serve (the most perfect and melty jacket potatoes, ever!).
