Twice Baked Potatoes

January 22, 2014 by Nettie 6 Comments

Remember me? The one with the hubs who buys FIFTY POUNDS of potatoes for $7.00 ??? Yeah that’s me… I always have lots of teens coming in and out so I always double my recipes, or bake an extra couple potatoes. It comes in real handy if they are hungry or not. I made these delicious Twice Baked Potatoes with a couple extra baked potatoes. This recipe is for two people, but you can always double the recipe. Recipe is adapted by The Duchess of Fork….Isn’t that a great name for a blog??!!

Twice Baked Potatoes

Ingredients

2 medium baking potatoes
2 tbsp. butter, softened
1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Scrub potatoes and dry completely.
Bake potatoes for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and prick each potato with a fork a few times. Return to oven and bake 30 more minutes.
Allow potatoes to cool long enough to handle. Cut the top of each potato off lengthwise. Remove flesh from top and bottom, leaving enough so that the skin holds up.
In a bowl, mash potato flesh with butter, sour cream, salt, pepper, garlic and 1/2 cup cheddar cheese. Stir until all ingredients are combined.
Press potato filling back into potato skins. Top with remaining cheese.
Lower oven temperature to 375 and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes.

If you have been following my blog for a while, then you know that I am in a predicament, a Food predicament~ A Potato Predicament!! If this is the first time you are visiting my blog, then welcome to the wacky world of the Moore’s!! Hubs loves buying everything in bulk quantity…Is it an Irish thing?? In this case, yes it is.

In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour with a fork, and cook, stirring constantly until thick, about 1 minute. Slowly stir in milk so that lumps don’t form and until all of the milk has been added. Continue stirring over medium-low heat until thick, 4 to 5 minutes.

{Sunday’s With Joy} Chili Cheese Fries

September 9, 2012 by Nettie 4 Comments

Chili Cheese Fries. I have to admit what comes to mind first when I read this is french fries smothered in chili. But not these tasty fries that my family now wants me to make every night. Yes I doubled the recipe and the vultures dove in and whoosh the plate of chili cheese fries had disappeared. I did one thing differently than the recipe stated, I added one red onion diced. So far all the Joy the Baker recipes that I have made have been wonderful and I have not been disappointed.

Baked Chili Cheese Fries

serves 3 people (about 1 potato per person)

adapted from Joy the Baker Cookbook

Ingredients

3 tablespoons cornstarch

1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

1/4 teaspoon ancho chili powder

3 russet potatoes, peeled

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce

2 tablespoons grill seasoning or dry barbecue rub (these often include salt)

1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1/4 cup chopped scallions

Directions

Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.

In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch, chili powder, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, cumin, and ancho chili powder. Set aside.

Rinse potatoes and peel with a vegetable peeler. You can leave some skin bits on the potatoes if you want to go for a more rustic fry. Using a sharp knife, slice a 1/4-inch piece off the potato lengthwise. This will give you a stable base to slice on. Rest the potato, cut side down, and slice potato into 1/4 to 3/8-inch planks.

Stack planks in piles 2 to 3 planks high, and slice lengthwise into 1/4 to 3/8-inch strips. And… you just cut French fries!!

In a medium bowl, toss the potato strips with olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, and grill seasoning or dry barbecue rub. Sprinkle the cornstarch mixture over the potato slices and use tongs to toss together, making sure that every potato is coated with a bit of cornstarch and seasoning.

Spread potatoes in a single layer across the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, removing the potatoes from the oven 2 or 3 times during baking to toss them together. Cook until potatoes are cooked through and brought to your desired crispiness. Remove from the oven, top with cheese and return to the oven for just a few minutes to melt the cheese. Remove and place onto a platter. Sprinkle with chives and serve immediately.
