Prep Time: 10 mins

Cook Time: 75 mins

Serves: 4

 

Ingredients

 4 medium Maris Piper potatoes
100g strong cheddar, grated, plus extra for topping
100g sweetcorn
100g mixed pepper, diced
Small handful of fresh herbs, such as oregano, basil, coriander, dill or thyme

 

Method

1. Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/Gas Mark 6. Bake the potatoes for about 1 hour until cooked and the skins are crispy. Leave to cool completely. This can be done up to 2 days ahead.

2. Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/Gas Mark 6. Cut the potatoes in half and carefully scoop out the middle, leaving the skins unbroken to create boats. Place the scooped potato into a mixing bowl.

3. Mash the potato with a fork until smooth. Add the cheese, sweetcorn and peppers and mix well. Pick the leaves from the herbs, tearing any larger leaves into smaller pieces, then stir into the mixture.

4. Carefully spoon the mixture back into the potato boats, using it all up. Sprinkle with a little extra grated cheese and place on a baking tray. Bake for 10–15 minutes until golden.
