Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200ºC. Pierce holes into the potato with a fork and bake for 1 hour until the inside is cooked and soft, then remove. Allow to cool until cold enough to handle, then peel the skin. Crank the oven up to 220ºC and line a baking tray with parchment paper

Step 2

In a separate bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add 200g peeled potato followed by oil and 60ml warm water. Mix into a soft, pliable dough and add more water if needed
