Ingredients
- 1 Large Baked Potato
- Butter, Cheese, Onions, Sweetcorn, Mayo or Sour Creme and whatever else you want as toppings.
- Salt (for the outside).
- Spray oil or regular oil (spray oil is easiest). This is also for the outside.
Method
- Get a paper towel and make it damp. Wrap the potato in the towel and put in the microwave.
- Set the microwave power on 50% and cook for 15 minutes.
- Transfer to the air fryer, spray lightly with oil, add a few bits of salt on the outside. If you don't want a crispy exterior, wrap it in foil. If you do, keep it unwrapped.
- Cook on the highest temp (450) for 10 mins.
- Test it's ready - stick a fork in it and see how easily the fork goes in - if it's easy then the middle is cooked - potato is done. If it has a bit of resistance, then stick it back in the air fryer.
- Once it's done, take it out, cut down the middle and start adding your ingredients. I always add butter, salt and pepper first and then everything else on top. If I'm adding beans then I heat the beans up in a small dish in the microwave first. Frozen sweetcorn should be cooked as well (also in the microwave, small amount of water, I think around 90s but check the packet). Sour creme, spring onions are the last thing that goes on.
