Here you have the recipe for baked potatoes with crispy parmesan , which is so simple that I don't know if it could be defined as such.

Ingredients

• 2 kg large potatoes, Kennebec variety
• 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
• 2 teaspoons of sea salt
• 50 g finely grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation

1. Heat the oven to 180 °C.
2. Wash and dry the potatoes, brush them with olive oil.
3. Place them on a large roasting tray and add the salt on top.
4. Bake for 1.5 hours (or until done), turning every 20 minutes.
5. Remove the tray from the oven, cover the potatoes with the Parmesan cheese and bake for another 5 minutes, until crisp.
6. Serve immediately, and enjoy!

Grades

• Season the potatoes to your liking. With freshly ground black pepper, with a few sprigs of thyme or rosemary, with oregano, with chopped garlic or onion... Make the recipe your own!
• Nothing like the Microplane Zester for grating cheese. Watch out for his relentless blade! You will see how you grate a lot of Parmesan in no time and you get a lovely airy Parmesan.
• When you add the Parmesan you can also add a bit of bacon or finely sliced ​​ham, so that it browns at the same time as the cheese and gives it a different touch. You can also do it with chorizo ​​or blood sausage. It sure comes out great.
