Mashed Potatoes (But Better)

Method

1. Wash the potato and pierce the skin several times with a fork.
2. Bake at approximately 200°C until completely tender when pierced; allow roughly 45–75 minutes for a medium potato, adjusting for size.
3. Let it cool enough to handle safely, then carefully remove the skin.
4. Mash in a bowl and season with red pepper.
5. Serve alongside a main dish.

This keeps my oven-baked preparation concept. Check tenderness rather than relying on a fixed timer.
