1.    Peel and cut the baking potato into small cubes.

11.    Remove the cover and drizzle over the olive oil and sprinkle the rock salt on top.

12.    Bake in a preheated oven 200°C (390°F, Gas Mark 6) for 25-30 minutes until well risen and deep golden brown in colour.

I frequently buy and make your bread mix (by hand as I don't own a bread maker). I enjoy all the varieties as do my family. I felt I just wanted to let you know how enjoyable they are and I recommend to all my friends. Keep up the good work. Thanks,
