Tick as you go. Your ticks are saved on this device only.

Method

Pressure-cook the whole potato with 1 cup water, 3 whistles (or boil 20 min) until a knife slides in.
Split it lengthways and press the ends so it opens like a boat.

Keeping

Keeps: Cook fresh; potato is never frozen in this plan

Why it tastes good: Salt the cooking water well; a well-seasoned potato needs no butter under the chilli.
