Useful Tips

So that potatoes always turn out tasty and beautiful, follow some rules:

• Always add a little vegetable oil to the potato to make the crust rosy and the vegetable juicy inside.
• Pre-boil the potatoes until half cooked. So you will reduce the baking time and not get a half-baked product.
• When heated, the bag inflates and can burst by touching the hot top or sides of the oven. Therefore, place a baking sheet with potatoes in the sleeve on the middle or lower level of the oven.
• It is easy to achieve a blush if you add a little paprika or turmeric to the spices.

Potatoes “love” various spices, so add herbs or spices to your standard set to taste. Whoever likes it more sharply, I advise you to take chili pepper, table mustard or hot ground paprika.
