Stuffed baked potato
Instructions
Tips
One of the most important things to consider when making these stuffed baked potatoes is the type of potatoes to use. Russet potatoes are the most commonly used type for baking as they have a light texture and are perfect for absorbing the flavours of the toppings. But Red and Yukon Gold potatoes also work quite well for this stuffed potato recipe. When prepping the potatoes for baking, it is important to give them a good scrub to remove any dirt and debris. Bake them at a high temperature to get that crispy exterior. A temperature of 250°C should do the trick, but the cooking time will vary depending on the size of the potatoes. To test if they are done, insert and small knife or fork into the centre – it should go right through.
