The baked potatoes

Finally, after weeks of waiting, I got my butt off the chair and tested the oven. And this time, just to keep me interested, Wife decided we should test it with some potatoes which I loved ever since my SIL cooked for me months ago.

And so, we used two potatoes and one sweet potato,
which Wife cut into 27 pieces. Add in the Rosemary
herb, some butter, salt and so on. Then we left it to
baked for 30 minutes at 130ºC.

While letting the over do the baking, Wife made some
sesame seeds for my Furikake. This is the first time I
have ever know that sesame seeds must be "cooked".
I assume they were just deep fried since the Chee
Cheong Fun ones are oily.

Half an hour later, its still not cooked. Then I
realised that the 30 minutes also include the
oven's warming up time. So, we put another
30 minutes, this time at 150ºC.

After some time, the sesame seeds turned almost
golden brown, which means its ready.

And finally, the 27 pieces are out of the oven.
You can smell the Rosemary herbs. It is very
appetising. However, since we did not use a
lot of butter, the 26 pieces came out very dry.

After letting the 24 pieces cool down, they tasted
quite dry and some parts felt raw.
(I though the crunchy parts were cool)

And so, after looking at the 22 pieces again,
they all taste quite nice but not as good as
the ones my SIL did. But still, this is a first
for me. The last time I ever used an oven
was more than 15 years ago.

And so, although it was a bit too dry, the
21 pieces were still edible, which is a good
sign because everyone survived.

Honestly, I think the next time I do this, I am going to use the oven first, then when it is about almost ready, I will put in some cheese slices and then put them all under a grill for a few minutes. Oh, an I am also thinking about a bolognese sauce to flood the whole dish but unfortunately, I not so sure about making it since I am already pushing my luck.
