Time 2h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large russet potatoes
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon minced green onion
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
½ cup shredded white Cheddar cheese
½ cup heavy cream
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 teaspoon paprika

Steps:

  • 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.
  • Bake stuffed potatoes until golden brown on top, 20 to 30 minutes.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 large russet potatoes, each about 3/4 pound each, scrubbed and dried
2 to 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/3 cup sour cream
1 scallion, finely chopped
Freshly grated nutmeg, optional
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place the potatoes directly on the rack in the center of the oven and bake for 30 minutes. Pierce each potato in a couple spots with a fork and continue to bake until tender, about 30 minutes more. Remove potatoes from the oven, and turn the heat down to 375 degrees F.
  • Hold the potato with an oven-mit or towel, trim off the top of the potatoes to make a canoe-like shape. Reserve the tops. Carefully scoop out most of the potato into a bowl. Take care to leave enough potato in the skin so the shells stay together. Mash the potato lightly with fork along with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the butter and sour cream. Stir in the scallion, nutmeg, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Season the skins with salt and pepper. Refill the shells with the potato mixture mounding it slightly. Sprinkle the cheese on top of the potato filling. Brush the reserved top with the remaining butter and season with salt and pepper.
  • Set the potatoes and lids on a baking sheet, and bake until heated through, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

CREAMED SPINACH TWICE-BAKED POTATOES



Creamed Spinach Twice-Baked Potatoes image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 medium russet potatoes (10 to 12 ounces each)
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus melted butter for brushing
1 9-ounce package baby spinach (about 10 cups), large stems removed
1 small clove garlic, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Kosher salt
2 large egg yolks
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 cup cold heavy cream

Steps:

  • Position racks in the middle and upper third of the oven; preheat to 400 degrees F. Scrub the potatoes and dry well. Bake directly on the middle oven rack until easily pierced with a knife, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven; let cool 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the spinach (in batches, if needed) and cook, tossing with tongs, until wilted, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, nutmeg, cayenne and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Increase the heat to high and cook until the liquid evaporates, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a cutting board and finely chop; squeeze dry in a kitchen towel.
  • One at a time, hold each potato with another kitchen towel and halve lengthwise. Scoop the flesh into a large bowl, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick shell. Mash the flesh with the remaining 3 tablespoons butter until smooth; season with salt. Stir in the egg yolks and parmesan, then the spinach mixture. Brush the potato skins with melted butter; season the insides with salt and pepper. Set on a baking sheet.
  • Beat the heavy cream in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes. Stir about one-quarter of the whipped cream into the potato mixture, then gently fold in the rest.
  • Mound the filling into the potato skins. Return to the oven on the top rack and bake until the filling is warmed through and starts browning, about 15 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil until the filling is golden brown and the skins are crisp, 1 to 2 more minutes.

½ cup chopped fresh mushrooms
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
1 teaspoon salt

Tips:

  • To make the potatoes easier to scoop out, let them cool slightly before handling them.
  • If you don't have a pastry bag, you can use a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off.
  • Be careful not to overfill the potato skins, or they will burst open in the oven.
  • To prevent the potatoes from drying out, cover them with foil during the last 10 minutes of baking.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately, while they are still hot and fluffy.

Conclusion:

Twice-baked potatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes.
