Potato Skins with Soured Cream


This is a tasty snack or just right for party food. You can sprinkle bacon bits over the top or add chopped herbs for a bit of colour and extra taste.

Ingredients: (makes 20)
5 large baking potatoes
150ml soured cream
1tsp chives - copped
salt and pepper
vegetable oil - for brushing

Method:
  • Heat the oven to 190'C or Gas Mark 5
  • Scrub the potatoes, rinse and pat dry. Prick the potatoes with a fork, then bake in the oven for one and a half hours until tender.
  • Meanwhile, make the dip. Mix the soured cream with the chives and a good dash of salt and pepper and chill.
  • Leave the potatoes to cool for a few minutes, then cut each one in half lengthways and then again to make 4 long pieces. Using a teaspoon, scoop out most of the potato, leaving just a thin layer next to the skin.
  • Brush the potato skins with oil, then fry over a medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden.
  • Sprinkle with salt and then either spoon in the soured cream or dip into it.   

Delicious!
