½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon ground paprika
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 ½ cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

LOADED POTATO SKINS

Enjoy these potato skins as a relaxed starter or snack. Use chives instead of spring onion for a milder flavour, or omit the bacon for a veggie version

Provided by Monaz Dumasia

Categories     Dinner, Snack, Starter

Time 1h30m

Yield Serves 4 as a starter, snack or side

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 medium baking potatoes
2 tsp olive oil
2 rashers streaky bacon
75g soured cream
1 chopped spring onion or 2 tbsp finely chopped chives
75g cheddar coarsely grated

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put the baking potatoes on a baking tray. Prick all over with a fork and rub with a little oil. Cook potatoes in oven for 1 hr until golden and cooked all the way through. Remove from oven. Allow potatoes to cool for 15 mins.
  • While potatoes are cooking, heat 1 tsp oil in a medium frying pan and fry the bacon for 5-8 mins until crisp. Leave to cool, then transfer to a board and finely chop.
  • Cut the slightly cooled potatoes in half and scoop the flesh from the skin into a large bowl, leaving a little around the edges. Put the skins back on the baking tray, scooped side up.
  • Mash the potato flesh and soured cream together using a fork or masher. Stir in the cooled bacon, most of the spring onion or chives and half of the cheddar. Season to taste.
  • Divide the potato mixture evenly between the cavities of the potato skins. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar over each filled potato half. Return the potatoes to the oven for 20 mins until golden and bubbling.
  • Sprinkle over the remaining spring onion or chives and serve hot.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for potato skins because they have a high starch content, which makes them crispy when baked. Yukon Gold and red potatoes can also be used, but they will not be as crispy.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes: The potatoes should be tender but still firm enough to hold their shape. Overcooked potatoes will be mushy and difficult to scoop out.
  • Use a variety of toppings: The possibilities are endless when it comes to toppings for potato skin dip. Some popular options include cheese, bacon, sour cream, chives, and salsa.
  • Make it ahead of time: Potato skin dip can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 2 days. This makes it a great option for parties or potlucks.
  • Serve it warm: Potato skin dip is best served warm. You can reheat it in the oven or microwave before serving.

Conclusion:

Potato skin dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With its crispy potato skins, creamy cheese filling, and variety of toppings, it is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you are looking for a crowd-pleasing snack or appetizer, give potato skin dip a try.
