📝 Preparation Steps
1
Bake potatoes:
2
Preheat oven to 220°C / 430°F (200°C fan). Place a rack on a tray (recommended but not critical).
3
Prick potatoes: Wash, scrub and dry potatoes well. Prick each potato 8 times with a fork.
4
Oil and salt: Put potatoes in a bowl, pour over oil and rub onto potatoes. Then sprinkle over salt and use your hands to coat. (Just do this as best you can. Some will stick, much will not!)
5
Bake: Place potatoes on rack and bake for ⏱️ 75 minutes or until you can pierce with a small knife with no resistance.
6
Prepare filling add-ins:
7
Cook bacon: Place bacon in a cold non-stick pan over medium heat. When the fat starts to melt, turn the heat up to high and cook bacon until golden. Drain on paper towels.
8
Heat butter and cream: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Then add cream and heat until hot, but don't let it boil. (You could also do this in a microwave)
9
Stuff potatoes:
10
Lower oven: Turn oven down to 200°C / 390°F (180°C fan).
11
Scoop out potato flesh: Allow potatoes to cool enough so you can handle them (or use a tea towel). Cut in half lengthwise and scoop out potato flesh, leaving 0.7cm (1/3") thick layer of potato still stuck to skin.
12
Mash potato: Place potato flesh in a bowl and mash while hot until smooth.
13
Add-ins: Add half the cheese (save the rest for topping), most of the bacon (save a bit for garnish), all the green onion, hot cream and butter, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
14
Bake again!
15
Stuff and top with cheese: Fill potato skins with the mashed potato mixture. Top with remaining cheese.
16
Bake: Bake for 20 to ⏱️ 25 minutes until the cheese is melted, golden and bubbly.
17
Serve: Serve immediately, garnish with sour cream, reserved bacon and chives.
Sour cream (recommended!)
