Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Wash the potatoes, prick them with a fork and rub them with a little oil and salt.
- Place them directly on the oven rack and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until the skin is crispy and the flesh gives way under a knife.
- While they bake, prepare the toppings: thinly slice the onion, dice the tomatoes and cucumber, drain the olives and sweetcorn.
- Take out the potatoes and cut a cross on the top. Lightly mash the flesh with a fork.
- Add a knob of butter and some salt to each potato, then pile on the grated cheese, which will melt from the heat.
- Arrange the toppings on the side, drizzle with mayonnaise and ketchup, then serve straight away.
Variations and tips
