Time 1h35m

Yield 8 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 medium red potatoes (about 2-1/4 pounds)
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) crumbled feta cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°. Scrub potatoes; pierce several times with a fork. Place in a foil-lined 15x10x1-in. baking pan; bake until tender, 40-45 minutes., Increase oven setting to 450°. When cool enough to handle, cut each potato crosswise in half. Scoop out pulp, leaving 1/4-in.-thick shells. (Save removed potato for another use.) If necessary, carefully trim bottom of cups so potatoes will sit upright. Rub 3 tablespoons oil over inside and outside of potatoes., Place potato cups on two 15x10x1-in. baking pans, cut side down; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until skin is crisp, 8-10 minutes. Turn potatoes over; bake until golden brown, 10-12 minutes longer. Remove from oven. Reduce oven setting to 350°., In a large skillet, heat remaining oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and oregano; cook and stir until onion is tender, 2-3 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in spinach and lemon juice; heat through. Remove from heat; stir in cheese. Spoon into potato cups. Bake until heated through, 8-10 minutes.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my potato cups didn't turn out very well. They were kind of soggy and the filling was bland.

These potato cups are a great way to use up leftover potatoes. I always have a few leftover potatoes after I make mashed potatoes or roasted potatoes, and these cups are the perfect way to use them up.

I thought the filling was a bit bland. I added some extra herbs and spices to give it more flavor.

My potato cups didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. I think I might have overcooked them.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe at first, but I'm so glad I tried it. The potato cups were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The filling was delicious and flavorful.
