Of course i know how to do baked potatoes but i've always used a microwave in the UK, but i prefer the crispy skin.

All i need is an oven now.

You can buy small ovens all over Bangkok. They work pretty well. Look something like this. Not expensive. Can be used for just about anything you need to bake or roast.

^ I'm sure the one you bought is splendid.

The one I got is shit. Italian thing, can barely warm water. One single element on the bottom and one on the top. Toast take 11 minutes?

If it costs less than 3k it ain't going to do the job in my view. So check the number of elements and the power.

I didn't buy one recently. Just a suggestion. Had one back in the day when I lived in a one room apartment in a Hong Kong whore house. Twas a Black and Decker.

Same same. Just scrub under running water with a scouring pad used only for veg. Dry off. I always use butter. Bake 1/2 hr at 400 degrees, then turn over and bake another 30 min.

I use the mike sometimes for sweet potatoes to get them started.

Believe it or not brined baked potatoes are exactly what you are looking for! These babies are the bomb!
Ingredients
  • 1 1/4 cups kosher salt
  • 6 medium russet potatoes, washed
  • 2 tablespoons garlic salt
  • 2 tablespoons seasoned salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Horseradish Sour Cream, recipe follows
Directions

In large mixing bowl dissolve 1 cup kosher salt in 8 cups of water. Add potatoes. Insure that all potatoes are submerged, and brine for 2 to 8 hours.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Remove the potatoes from brine and liberally coat with the remaining kosher salt, garlic salt, seasoned salt, and pepper.
Place the potatoes on a wire rack in the center of the oven and bake for 45 minutes. Do not puncture skin with tongs, fork, or tooth picks. Potatoes will be soft to the touch when done.
Let potatoes rest 5 minutes before cutting.
