Potatoes "Guests on the doorstep" (baked in the microwave)

Category: Vegetable and fruit dishes

Ingredients
Potatoes (medium size)	5 pieces
butter	a small slice for each potato half
sea ​​salt	taste
seasoning for potatoes or just ground black pepper	taste

Cooking method

• Cut the potatoes into halves. cut a cone-shaped hole in each half, in which the melted butter will boil during cooking.
• Salt. Put a piece of butter on each cut-out hole (the author of the recipe even suggests putting a whole plate of butter, but the piece is enough for me, which you see in my photo)
• Sprinkle with the seasoning you like best for the potatoes. I have Mriya seasoning, which includes the following spices: dried savory greens, dried onions, turmeric, coriander, paprika, dried garlic, dried marjoram, bay leaf, parsley, black pepper, red pepper, fenugreek, dill, allspice ... Neither salt nor any chemical additives are included.
• Calculation of two potatoes per person, of course, and more if the guests are very hungry
• Cook in the microwave at 750 -900 W for 12 minutes. Who has a microwave weaker than 750 W 5-6 potatoes need to be cooked for 15 minutes.
• If you do not put the oil in the cut-out indentation, then the potatoes take longer to cook and not so tasty.
• After 12 minutes of cooking, do not eat potatoes right away. let it sit on the plate for another 5 minutes. because it comes to readiness and the oil is literally boiling.
• After 12 minutes of microwave cooking, I put it under the grill for 6-7 minutes. then the potatoes are still covered with a fragrant golden brown crust on top.
• The recipe is taken from the forum of Nastya Skripkina from one wonderful Sergei from Moscow
  
  
  
  
  
  This recipe became just a lifesaver for me. Having read it for the first time on the forum of Nastya Skripkina, I wondered what a 55-year-old man cooks there in the microwave?
  And now this fragrant potato is very often on my table. I don't even always put it under the grill when time is short. Sometimes I come home: the family has already cleaned the herring and are sitting waiting until I come and make potatoes in the microwave. And at work, after I showed them how you can cook such a potato in a simple microwave \ "folk model \" even without the Lg grill, 2-3 times a week the men themselves make for lunch immediately for the same portion as in my photo for each

Try to "drown a piece of butter flush" into the recess and cover it with a thin circle of onions.

And the potatoes dried up ... I did everything according to the recipe ..

retrained? maybe there was a small portion of potatoes? my employee at work also said that she was overdrying, and then it turned out that she put only two potatoes and therefore it was a lot of 12 minutes for him.
Look at my link from the owner of the large potato recipe. but he cooks them for 15 minutes already in the Soviet microwave. I always set the power of 900W for 12 minutes, but potatoes need medium and large, small ones dry out. I have a large plate in the photo (plate holder 28cm in diameter)

Have you ever tried this in the oven? how much better to bet?

no, I haven't tried it in the oven.If you need to brown it under the grill, put it in the microwave. The whole point is that the microwave is faster. So to speak, the recipe is a lifesaver.

SeredaG, thanks for the cool recipe and the link to the author's page. At work, they are now stocked up with potatoes, the team rallied for a meal! And thanks from home too!

Sorry, I didn't answer right away. To your health, I also thank the author of the recipe many times for introducing me to such a simple recipe. Already several times I did it a little differently, also delicious. Wash the potatoes cleanly with the peel and cut into slices along the potato like so 🔗
pour a little olive or sunflower oil in a bowl, add salt, sprinkle with herbs to taste, stir by hand, then put the potato wedges on the plate in which it will be cooked, peel down in one layer. I also cook at full microwave power for 12-13 minutes, and then I put a plate of potatoes under the grill for 8 minutes. Or so much. so that it turns appetizingly brown.

My second recipe even liked it better, it looks like "country-style potatoes", you need to roll it in at work (I'm still sick, I've caught a cold, I'm lying at home). Thank you!

Thanks for the recipe, I haven't tried it yet. Made chips - cut potatoes thinly. I'll try this.
