Hi guys. Bear here. Home alone.
I have a potato here, and i have an oven. How long do i have to put the potato in the oven to make it nice? Is 20 mins about right?
Srs question no trolls pls
20 minutes is too short Bear, unless you first coat the potato in washing up liquid.
If you do that first, then 20 minutes will be fine.

How long then, you unhelpful beltch! 30 mins?
20mins is too short to do it properly
if you are in a hurry & have a metal skewer then run that through the middle of the spud - itāll speed up cooking time (a metal knife will work)
alternatively phone your local curry house - a lamb bhuna and pilau rice would be my choice this early in the evening

You inadvertently spelled my name incorrectly, Bear.
Got a microwave?
Put oven on 200-220c to warm up.
Put large spud in microwave (pricked first*) for 9-10 mins (900w).
Coat spud in oil, salt and pepper.
Put spud in oven for 20-30 mins to crisp up.
*this process involves a fork and not a penis.

BBC breaking news:
Bearsy blows up kitchen by trying to microwave jacket potato skewered with a metal knife.
Neighbours unsurprised.A neighbour who was too frightened to reveal his name said āMr B Earsy is no stranger to disaster, I shudder to recall the great toilet incident of '83 after he had been on the sauce for a week solid. Letās just say, the Geological Society recorded a tremor of 8.9 on the Richter Scaleā¦ā

N.B. Keep the microwave door closed for as long as possible to reduce the splatter effect.

Does that recipe also work for leg of goat?
Only if you substitute the goatā¦
It probably would work with goat but would need more cooking time. Also I have never butchered a goat as it wouldnāt feel right. I can butcher most things.
Goat, like mutton, works better with lower temperatures and longer cooking times. Nice lean cut of goat would be ok on the grill.
Youāre a cruel man ā¦
