Serves 2
Ingredients
2 large potatoes 200g cheddar cheese, grated Butter (salted) Sea salt and black pepper
Method
Bake the potatoes in a hot oven (200°c) for one hour. Remove the potatoes from the oven and with a sharp knife cut a disc shape out of the skin on one of the flat sides. With a spoon, scoop the potato from out of the skin, being careful not to damage the shell. Mash the cooked potato with the grated cheddar adding a little butter and seasoning. Carefully replace the potato into the skins and put the top back on. Bake for a further 20 minutes and remove from the oven. Delicious with ham
