BAKED POTATO WITH RICOTTA
I was playing around with toppings for baked potatoes and I came up with this. Very simple and tastes good. The "residents" here at the home don't like sour cream w/out sugar(!), I think it is a Cuban thing, so we came up with another alternative.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Combine cherry tomatoes, zucchini, bell pepper, onion, sun-dried tomatoes, oregano, and garlic in a large, 3-quart baking dish. Drizzle generously with 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with pepper flakes, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir to coat everything. Make a well in the center of the dish and drop in the ricotta cheese. Drizzle the ricotta with remaining olive oil and give it a generous pinch more of pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Slice the rounded ends off the potatoes, then use an apple peeler and small knife to hollow out the potato, leaving a 1-2cm edge all the way around.
- Mix together the ingredients for the paste and the ingredients for the filling, seasoning both mixtures - I tend to over-season both mixtures as the potato will absorb some of the salt.
- Fill the potatoes with the ricotta mixture, then coat in the paste. Sit the potatoes in an ovenproof dish, spoon any remaining paste on top, then cook for 50 mins-1 hr until the potato is soft when pierced with the tip of a knife. Serve thickly sliced with a salad of tomato, onion and coriander.

BAKED POLENTA WITH TOMATO SAUCE AND RICOTTA
I turn to polenta when I am in need of some good, old-fashioned comfort food. I suspect it's because there is not much difference between polenta and the grits I was raised on in North Florida. This simple dish relies once again on my favorite tomato sauce and not much else other than freshly cooked polenta made better than ever with a little added ricotta.

Steps:
- To prepare the tomato sauce:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place the tomatoes, yellow onion, and garlic in a baking pan. Bake for 45 minutes or until the garlic is soft and the skin is peeling away from the tomatoes. Remove from the oven and cool to room temperature. Remove the skin from the tomatoes and put in a saucepan. Squeeze the garlic out of the bulb and into the tomatoes. Remove the skin from the onion. Coarsely chop the onion and add to the tomatoes.
- Add the olive oil to the tomatoes and puree with a handheld immersion blender until smooth. You may need to add up to 1/3 cup water if there is not enough liquid. Season with salt. Warm the tomato sauce just prior to use.
- To prepare the polenta:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a medium saucepan, bring 3 cups of water to a simmer and stream in the polenta. Whisk together until there are no lumps. Cover with a lid and continue to cook over low heat for 20 minutes, stirring every 3 minutes. Be careful when you go to stir the polenta-it tends to spit out pieces of the cornmeal, which is very hot. Remove the polenta from the heat and stir in the olive oil and basil. Drop in teaspoon-size pieces of the ricotta cheese. Pour the polenta into an 8-inch square baking pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese and let sit for 1 hour or until the polenta has firmed up. Bake the polenta in the oven for 15 minutes or until heated through. Cut the polenta into 8 equal pieces.
- To serve:
- Place 1/2 cup warm tomato sauce in 4 shallow bowls and top with two pieces of the polenta. Sprinkle with the chopped basil.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Use large baking potatoes with smooth skin and few blemishes. This will help ensure that they bake evenly and are fluffy on the inside.
- Wash the potatoes thoroughly: Scrub the potatoes with a vegetable brush to remove any dirt or debris.
- Prick the potatoes with a fork: This will help the potatoes bake evenly and prevent them from bursting.
- Bake the potatoes at a high temperature: This will create a crispy skin and fluffy interior.
- Cook the potatoes until they are tender: Use a fork to test the potatoes for doneness. They should be soft all the way through.
- Let the potatoes cool slightly before cutting them open: This will help prevent the potatoes from falling apart.
- Top the potatoes with your favorite toppings: Some popular options include butter, sour cream, cheese, bacon, and chives.
Conclusion:
Baked potatoes are a versatile and delicious side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of toppings. By following these tips, you can make perfect baked potatoes every time. Whether you are looking for a simple and easy side dish or a hearty and satisfying meal, baked potatoes are a great option.
