First, wash the tubers and grease them with vegetable oil. Thanks to this simple trick, the potatoes will not be overdried and their skin will not wrinkle.

Stick 3 toothpicks into each potato so that you can literally arrange the vegetables on a plate. The toothpicks are needed to ensure that the potatoes bake evenly.

Now you can safely put the resulting preparations in the microwave.

The power should be maximum, and you already know the time – 5 minutes.
