Garlic salt
Preparation
Step 1 : To prepare this delicious baked potato dish, it's important to preheat the oven to 400°F.
Step 2 : Next, carefully wash the potatoes and cut a piece off the bottom of each to help them roll easily while baking.
Step 3 : Once the potatoes are ready, make slices without fully separating them, so they remain connected at the top.
Step 4 : Then, place them in an ovenproof dish, such as a Pyrex, separating them with toothpicks to maintain their shape during cooking.
Step 5 : Next, distribute the finely chopped garlic between the slots of the potatoes and drizzle with olive oil and melted margarine.
Step 6 : It's important to ensure each potato is well impregnated with these ingredients to achieve a delicious flavor.
Step 7 : Bake the potatoes for approximately 50 minutes, or until they are tender and golden, occasionally basting them with melted margarine so they cook evenly and stay juicy inside.
Step 8 : Once done, serve the baked potatoes accompanied by sour cream for a creamy and delicious touch with each bite.
