Stuffed jacket potatoes

The 'Twice Baked Potato' is the art of saving leftovers. The inside of the jacket potato is mashed, enriched (sour cream, cheese, ham), then stuffed back into its own skin and baked again. Thus, the skin serves as a crispy boat for the creamy interior.

Instructions

Wash potatoes, prick with fork, rub with oil, and bake at 200°C for approx. 45-50 minutes (until soft).

Tip: Pricking is needed so steam can escape and they don't explode.
2

Cut in half, carefully scoop out the inside into a bowl (leave skin intact!).

3

Mash the potato flesh with sour cream, cheese, ham, and spices.

Tip: Make a creamy mash.
4

Stuff back into skins and bake for another 15 minutes until top is browned.

Recipe FAQ

Why did the skin tear?
You scraped the wall too thin. Leave half a centimetre of 'flesh' on the skin to give it support.
