Padma Lakshmi has amassed immense popularity in the food circles. Besides hosting the cooking competition 'Top Chef', she keeps her fans entertained on Instagram with her foodie activities. Whether it is sharing food-related funny memes or doling out her very own recipes, her Instagram wall is a foodie's delight to look at. From imly chutney recipe to cranberry chutney recipe, she makes us stop scrolling with almost every new post. Her recent mukbang video of eating gol gappa with her daughter just could not be missed out on. And this time, she has made us happy again with her super easy baked potato recipe.
Potato is one ingredient that can be transformed into numerous dishes. Baked potato lets us enjoy the true flavours of the vegetable. The soft, mushy flesh of the potato spiced with some robust spices and sauces, and that oh-so wonderful smokiness from baking - all make it a satiating treat. Another great thing about this dish is that it is super easy to make, yet, it is not as famous a dish as it deserves to be. Reason: not everyone has an oven at home.
Padma Lakshmi solved this problem by sharing a recipe of baked potatoes that doesn't need an oven to make; she makes it in a microwave! In an Instagram post, Padma Lakshmi revealed that she likes her baked potatoes topped with some butter, yogurt and lots of hot sauce.
