Jacket Potato with Fillings Recipe

British · Main course · 85 min total

A classic British comfort food: a fluffy baked potato with crispy skin, loaded with your choice of fillings like cheese, beans, or tuna.

Ingredients

• 4 large baking potatoes (about 300g each)
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 200g grated cheddar cheese
• 1 can (400g) baked beans
• 200g canned tuna, drained
• 4 tbsp sour cream
• 4 tbsp butter
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Scrub potatoes clean and pat dry. Prick each potato several times with a fork.
2. Rub potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt. Place directly on oven rack and bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, until skin is crisp and flesh is soft when squeezed.
3. While potatoes bake, prepare fillings: Grate cheese, warm baked beans in a small saucepan, and flake tuna with a fork. Set aside.
4. Remove potatoes from oven. Let cool for 5 minutes. Cut a cross on top of each potato and squeeze open from the bottom to fluff the flesh.
5. Add 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon sour cream to each potato, season with salt and pepper, and mash lightly with a fork.
6. Top with desired fillings: grated cheese, baked beans, tuna, or a combination. Serve immediately.

Tips

• For extra crispy skin, bake potatoes directly on the oven rack, not on a tray.
• Leftover baked potatoes can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven or microwave.
• Try other fillings like chili con carne, coleslaw, or crispy bacon bits.
