Wash the potatoes to remove dirt and impurities.

Wrap each potato in aluminum foil.

Optionally, cut the potatoes in half or make cuts in them before wrapping, but in this case, the creator wraps them whole.

Wait for the fire to turn to coals and place the wrapped potatoes on top of the coals, or place them near the fire to cook slowly.

If placed on coals, they will take about 30 minutes to 1 hour to cook, depending on the size of the potatoes and amount of coals.

If cooking slowly near the fire, it may take around 2 hours.

Check if the potatoes are done by squeezing them with tongs; they should feel soft.

Remove the potatoes from the foil and place them on a clean plate.

Cut the skin of the potato with a knife and peel it off using a fork.

Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with salt or seasoning like garlic and parsley.
