Best 8 Twice Baked Gouda Stuffed Potatoes Recipes

TWICE BAKED POTATOES (STUFFED JACKET POTATOES)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 220°C / 430°F (200°C fan). Place a rack on a tray (recommended but not critical).
• Prick potatoes: Wash, scrub and dry potatoes well. Prick each potato 8 times with a fork.
• Oil and salt: Put potatoes in a bowl, pour over oil and rub onto potatoes. Then sprinkle over salt and use your hands to coat. (Just do this as best you can. Some will stick, much will not!)
• Bake: Place potatoes on rack and bake for 75 minutes or until you can pierce with a small knife with no resistance.
• Cook bacon: Place bacon in a cold non-stick pan over medium heat. When the fat starts to melt, turn the heat up to high and cook bacon until golden. Drain on paper towels.
• Heat butter and cream: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Then add cream and heat until hot, but don't let it boil. (You could also do this in a microwave)
• Lower oven: Turn oven down to 200°C / 390°F (180°C fan).
• Scoop out potato flesh: Allow potatoes to cool enough so you can handle them (or use a tea towel). Cut in half lengthwise and scoop out potato flesh, leaving 0.7cm (1/3") thick layer of potato still stuck to skin.
• Mash potato: Place potato flesh in a bowl and mash while hot until smooth.
• Add-ins: Add half the cheese (save the rest for topping), most of the bacon (save a bit for garnish), all the green onion, hot cream and butter, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
• Stuff and top with cheese: Fill potato skins with the mashed potato mixture. Top with remaining cheese.
• Bake: Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the cheese is melted, golden and bubbly.
• Serve: Serve immediately, garnish with sour cream, reserved bacon and chives.

SPICY SMOKED GOUDA TWICE-BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• PREHEAT the oven to 400°F.
• PLACE the potatoes directly on the middle oven rack and bake until knife tender, fluffy on the inside, and crispy on the outside, 1 1/2 hours. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool. Turn the broiler to high.
• MEANWHILE, stir together 2 cups of the Gouda, the mayonnaise, sour cream, pickled jalapeños, green onion, and paprika in a large bowl.
• WHEN the potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice them open lengthwise, scoop out the fluffy insides, and carefully transfer them to the Gouda mixture. Fold gently to combine.
• LAY the empty potato skins on a rimmed baking sheet and evenly distribute the potato filling among the skins, so they are almost overflowing with filling. Top each potato with a generous sprinkling of the remaining shredded Gouda.
• BROIL the potatoes until the cheese is melty and gooey, about 4 minutes. Keep an eye on them so the cheese doesn't burn. Garnish with more green onions if desired. Serve immediately.

• When potatoes are done allow them to cool for 10 minutes. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop the flesh into a large bowl; save skins. To the potato flesh add sour cream, milk, butter, salt, pepper, 1/2 cup cheese and 1/2 the green onions. Mix with a hand mixer until well blended and creamy. Spoon the mixture into the potato skins. Top each with remaining cheese, green onions and bacon.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Scrub and dry potatoes. Rub surface with a little vegetable oil or vegetable shortening. Prick in several places with fork.
• Bake in preheated oven for approximately 1 hour or test for doneness by gently squeezing the middle of the potato, using a pot holder. If it gives in easily to your touch, it is done. Remove potatoes to a work surface.
• Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise and allow to cool long enough to handle. Scoop out flesh with a spoon, being careful to leave shells intact (about 1/4-inch thick) and place in a bowl. Add 1 cup of the cheese, plus the sour cream, heavy cream, butter, green onion, parsley, salt and pepper to the potato flesh. Mash with potato masher or beat until just smooth with an electric mixer.

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Rub potatoes with vegetable oil and place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a paring knife easily inserts into the center of a potato, about 1 hour. Set aside to cool until easy to handle, about 10 minutes.
• Cut 1/3 off each potato lengthwise. Scoop flesh from each potato to within about 1/8-inch of the skins. Transfer flesh to a bowl.
• Combine potato flesh with butter and green onion; stir until butter is melted evenly into potato. Add salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and cheese; stir until cheese is melted. Pour cream and egg yolk into potato mixture; mix to combine. Season with salt to taste.
• Place small piece of potato skin inside the bottom of each larger potato shell. Fill each potato with an equal amount of cheese mixture. Gently press the surface of the filling with a fork to create texture. Brush tops with melted butter and sprinkle with paprika.

CLASSIC STUFFED TWICE BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Scrub and pierce potatoes.
• Bake for one hour, or until fully cooked.
• Remove potatoes from oven and let cool slightly.
• Cut potatoes in half and scoop out potato, being careful not to tear the skins, and place in a large bowl.
• Set skins aside.
• Add butter and salt to potatoes; mash until smooth.
• Add sour cream; mash until combined.
• Add cheese; mash until combined.
• Add one tablespoon of milk; mash.
• If the mixture needs to be more creamy, add more milk, one tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency.
• Add additional salt to taste, if needed.
• Fill empty skins with potato mixture.
• Top each potato with a half slice of cheese.
• Return to oven and reheat until hot.
• *Note*You may also refrigerate them to reheat at a later time, or you can freeze them.
• If you freeze them, delay placing the cheese slices on top until you are ready to bake them. You might want to add more milk to the mix before filling the potatoes because after freezing they seem to reheat a little less creamy.

TWICE-BAKED POTATOES WITH GOAT'S CHEESE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Prick each potato a few times with a fork. Place in the oven and cook for 1 hr. Remove from the oven and, using a tea towel to protect your hands, cut them in half lengthwise. Use a spoon and scoop out the flesh, leaving behind enough skin and flesh to form a shell.
• Heat the grill. Place the potato halves, cut side up, onto a baking tray. Brush with a little melted butter then grill for 3-5 mins until starting to crisp. Meanwhile mash the potato flesh with 100g of goat's cheese, any leftover butter and cream, then season well. Spoon a little mash back into each potato shell, then top with a slice of goat's cheese. Place under the grill and cook for 5 mins until golden.

TWICE-BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Position racks in the top and middle of the oven, and heat oven to 400 degrees. Take the butter out of the refrigerator to soften. Scrub the potatoes clean and pat them dry. Poke holes all over them with a fork. In a large bowl, toss them with the oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Place the potatoes directly on the top rack, and place a baking sheet or a piece of foil on the middle rack to catch drips. Bake for about 1 hour, until the skin is crisp and potatoes offer no resistance when a knife is inserted in their centers. Remove from the oven and let sit until cool enough to handle.
• Slice the top third lengthwise off the potatoes. Use a spoon to scoop out the flesh, leaving 1/4-inch border of potato on the skin, and transfer the flesh to a medium bowl. Scrape the potato tops of all flesh, and add the flesh to the bowl. Place the bottoms on a parchment-lined baking sheet. (Snack on the tops - chef's treat - or discard.)
• Mash the potato flesh with a fork or potato masher. Add the butter, and stir until smooth (try not to overwork). Add the milk, sour cream and cheese and stir to combine. (If you want the filling softer, add more milk.) Season generously with salt and pepper. Stir in the chives, if using.
• Mound each potato skin with a quarter of the filling. Bake the potatoes until warmed through, about 10 minutes. Serve immediately.
