Twice-baked crispy potatoes with a cheesy paprika veg filling


Had a significantly delightful lunch today. Pretty much just made it up as I went. They take a bit of planning and time but are worth the wait - crispy cheesy deliciousness.

Twice-baked crispy potatoes
Serves 1
 
Ingredients
One large potato
Oil for brushing (I used olive)
1/8 C canned corn kernels
1/2 C steamed broccoli
+/- other veggies
Handful grated cheese (I used tasty)
1/2 tsp minced garlic
Smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, pepper to taste

Method
1. Preheat oven to 200C. Wash potato and prick a few times with a fork. Place on baking tray and bake for 45 mins - 1 hour. 

2. Remove potato from oven, cut in half and scoop out innards - leaving a 5mm rim of potato. Place innards into a small bowl. Brush insides and outsides of potato with oil.

3. Return potato to the oven for 10 minutes. Flip potatoes and bake for a further 10 minutes.

4. Meanwhile, mash the potato up a bit with a fork and mix in the garlic, seasonings and veggies.

5. Remove potato halves from the oven and fill with the potato mix. Turn oven up to about 220C. Top filled potato skins with grated cheese and return to oven for another 10 or so minutes until the cheese is nicely melted.
