See different methods for cooking the potatoes below.
To Microwave
Place potato on microwave-safe plate and microwave for 7 minutes, turning over halfway through cooking. If your potato isn’t fork tender after 7 minutes, continue microwaving in 1 minute increments. Let rest for 2 minutes.
To Air Fry
Arrange the potatoes in a single layer in an air fryer basket. Set the air fryer to 200°C and cook for 40-50 minutes, or until a sharp knife goes through the potatoes easily.
Check the potatoes after 20 minutes – if they seem to be browning too quickly on one side, turn them over using tongs, then check again after another 20 minutes to ensure they're cooked through.
To Slow Cook
Put the potatoes into the slow cooker, put on the lid. Cook on high for 4 ½ to 5 hrs or cook on low for 7 ½ to 8 hrs.
To Oven Cook
Heat the oven to 220°C or gas mark 7. Put on the top shelf of the oven. Bake for 20 minutes, then turn down the oven to 190°C, gas mark 5 and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hr more until the skin is crisp and the inside soft.
