Jacket Potato with Toppings Recipe

British · Main course · 85 min total

A classic British comfort food: a baked potato with a fluffy interior and crispy skin, loaded with your favorite toppings.

Ingredients

• 4 large russet potatoes (about 10 oz each)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 4 tbsp unsalted butter
• 4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
• 2 green onions, sliced
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub potatoes clean and pat dry. Prick each potato several times with a fork.
2. Rub potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with kosher salt. Place directly on oven rack and bake for 60-75 minutes, until skin is crisp and a knife inserts easily.
3. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Slice each potato open lengthwise and fluff the flesh with a fork.
4. Top each potato with 1 tbsp butter, 2 tbsp sour cream, 2 tbsp cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and green onions. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Serve immediately while hot.

Tips

• For extra crispy skin, rub potatoes with oil and salt, then bake directly on the rack.
• Customize toppings: try chili, baked beans, tuna mayo, or steamed broccoli with cheese.
• Leftover baked potatoes can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven or microwave.
