Ingredients

  • 6 Large Potatoes (whole with skin still on)

  • 0.5 cup Milk

  • 1 tbsp Butter

  • 1 Onion, diced

  • 2 Garlic cloves

  • 3 Bacon rashers, diced

  • 6 tbsp Parmesan Cheese

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 180 degrees.
  • Wash & prick potatoes all over with a fork. Place on baking tray and cook for 90 minutes until soft in the center when tested with a knife or skewer.
  • Allow potatoes to cool slightly then slice in half. Scoop out center of potato with a spoon and keep this in a bowl to mash.
  • Once all potatoes are just shells, place back in oven for 10 minutes to crisp.
  • Mash potato with milk and butter until smooth.
  • Heat frypan over high heat and add diced onion, garlic and bacon and sauteed until lightly browned.
  • Stir bacon mix through mashed potato.
  • Remove potato skins from oven, fill with mash potato mix.
  • Top with grated parmesan cheese, fresh parsley and serve.

Notes

  • Stuffed Potato Skins are not suitable for freezing and best served when made.
  • We added a dollop of sour cream and a drizzle of sweet chilli sauce when we taste tested at SAHM HQ and it was delicious!
