Instructions
- Wash the potatoes and wrap each one in a sheet of aluminum foil.
- Bury the potatoes in the ashes and let them cook for about 60-90 minutes (see note 3).
- Check for doneness by unwrapping one, cutting it open and tasting (you can also insert a skewer or knife to see if they are soft). They should be almost black on the outside and have hard skin.

Notes
- Double / triple / half … the recipe, if you like.
- The choice of toppings is up to you. Chives and crispy bacon are other tasty choices.
- The cooking time will vary – depending on the size of the potatoes you are using and the heat of the ashes.
- You can use any type of potatoes and any size (I don’t recommend using baby potatoes though as they are way too small. Go for medium or large size potatoes).
