How to make tasty baked potatoes
First, wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into medium-sized wedges.
Transfer the potatoes to a baking dish and season them with salt, pepper, and extra virgin olive oil.
At this point, bake the potatoes at 392°F for about 20 minutes, meanwhile cut the mortadella into cubes. After the potatoes are cooked, add the mortadella directly into the baking dish in the oven.
As a last step, before removing from the oven, add the cheese cut into cubes, letting it melt in the oven until the potatoes finish cooking.
Storing tasty baked potatoes
The tasty baked potatoes can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container until the next day. I recommend reheating them in the oven in grill mode.
FAQ (Questions and Answers)

Sure, you can replace the mortadella with cooked ham, sausages, or even crumbled sausage. The cheese can also be replaced with Galbanino or spicy provolone to give an extra touch of flavor.
