Equipment

  • nonstick baking paper
  • baking tray
  • large bowl

Ingredients

  • 12 baby potatoes
  • 1 tbsp extra viring olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste dont add to much salt as it can get really salty
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic granules
  • ½ tsp dried thyme

Instructions

  • Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with a tissue, making sure they’re completely dry. Keep the skin on for extra crispiness.
  • Place them in a bowl and add all the ingredients except for the cheese and butter. Mix well until evenly coated.
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan). Line a baking tray with a non-stick baking sheet and spread the potatoes out evenly.
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes. Around the 40-45 minute mark, check for doneness by inserting a skewer or fork—if it slides in easily, they’re ready.
  • Once cooked, take them out of the oven and carefully cut a slit in the middle to create a pocket (without cutting them fully in half).
  • Add about ¼ teaspoon of butter to each potato, then stuff them with your grated cheese of choice, letting it melt into the hot potatoes.
  • Serve with your favorite protein and veggies, and enjoy!
