Baked Potato In Oven Recipes

OVEN-BAKED POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• Place potatoes in small stockpot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium high; gently boil until tender, 40 to 45 minutes. Drain in a colander. Using a towel to hold potatoes, peel while still hot. Pass potatoes through a potato ricer or a food mill into a large bowl.
• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in skillet over medium-low heat. Add garlic, onions, red peppers, and celery; saute until vegetables are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add stock; saute 1 minute more. Add vegetable mixture to potatoes along with milk, thyme, salt, and black and cayenne peppers. Form 1/3 cup mixture into 3-inch round cake; transfer to platter. Repeat, making cakes with remaining mixture.
• In a shallow dish, whisk egg whites until foamy. Place bread crumbs in a shallow dish. Coat cakes in egg whites, then in bread crumbs; transfer to a baking sheet.
• Pour 1 tablespoon canola oil in a medium nonstick skillet; place over medium-high heat. Add half the cakes; cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Return to baking sheet; set aside. Repeat process with remaining tablespoon canola oil and cakes, wiping skillet with paper towel between batches.
• Place cakes in oven; cook until deeply golden, about 20 minutes. Serve with Sweet Red-Pepper Sauce.

BEST BAKED POTATO

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F and position racks in top and bottom thirds.
• Wash potato (or potatoes) thoroughly with a stiff brush and cold running water.
• Dry, then using a standard fork poke 8 to 12 deep holes all over the spud so that moisture can escape during cooking.
• Place in a bowl and coat lightly with oil.
• Sprinkle with kosher salt and place potato directly on rack in middle of oven.
• Place a baking sheet (I put a piece of aluminum foil) on the lower rack to catch any drippings.
• Bake 1 hour or until skin feels crisp but flesh beneath feels soft.
• Serve by creating a dotted line from end to end with your fork, then crack the spud open by squeezing the ends towards one another.
• It will pop right open.
• But watch out, there will be some steam.
• NOTE: If you're cooking more than 4 potatoes, you'll need to extend the cooking time by up to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the water and salt until the salt is dissolved.
• Wash the potatoes and trim away any eyes. Use a fork to carefully poke the potatoes on all sides to allow steam to escape.
• Add each potato, one at a time, to the brine, and roll to coat it in the water. Transfer to a perforated pan (see note).
• Carefully insert the probe into the center of the largest potato.
• Transfer to the oven, attach the probe, and cook until the probe reaches its target temperature, 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the size of the potatoes.
• Remove the potatoes from the oven and brush on all sides with the melted duck fat.
• Return to the oven, placing a second tray on the rack below to catch any drips. Cook until the skin is crisp, about 15 minutes after the stage begins.
• Slice each potato open, fluff the insides, and add butter or any other desired toppings. Serve hot.
