Poke a fork into various spots of each potato.
Place in the oven evenly spaced apart. Do not have any potatoes touching.
Test when the cooking ends. If they need more time, try another 10 to 15 minutes.
Use tongs to lift out of the oven.
Push a fork into the flesh and mash it around.
Season with salt and pepper. Add anything else you'd like, such as grated cheese, baked beans, chopped tomatoes, etc.

Take appropriate care around halogen ovens; the sides and lid are hot during cooking. It's still an oven! Use mitts to remove the lid and tongs to remove all food and dishes.
