Description
English Jacket Potatoes are fluffy, baked potatoes with a crispy skin, served hot with butter, flaky sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
Ingredients
Scale
4 medium russet potatoes (8 to 10 ounces each)
Butter
flaky sea salt
freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Scrub the potatoes under cold water and dry them thoroughly.
- Prick each potato several times with a fork to allow steam to escape during baking.
- Rub the potatoes with a little olive oil and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
- Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for 30-40 minutes until the skin is crispy and a fork easily penetrates the flesh.
- Remove the potatoes from the oven, slice them open, and fluff the insides with a fork.
- Add a generous amount of butter, sprinkle with more flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, and serve hot.
Notes
For extra flavor, you can also try adding cheese, sour cream, or chives as toppings.
