Ingredients

Potato Skins

  • 50 g Glenilen Natural Yoghurt
  • 4 Large baking potatoes (I used rooster)
  • 2 tbsp rapeseed oil
  • 250 g cooked smoked bacon, diced
  • 4 spring onions, chopped
  • 1 medium egg
  • 70 g red cheddar, grated
  • 70 g mozzarella, grated
  • Salt and pepper

Chive Yoghurt

  • 200 g Glenilen Natural Yoghurt
  • 3 tbsp chives, chopped

Method
 

  • For the chive yoghurt, mix the Glenilen Natural Yoghurt with chopped fresh chives and keep chilled until needed.
  • For the skins, preheat your oven to 200C/180C fan.
  • Prick the potatoes with a fork all over and place in the oven for 1 hour or until cooked. Pricking them allows steam to leave during cooking and stops the potatoes bursting open.
  • Once baked, carefully cut in half and scoop out some potato from the centre. Make sure you leave a little behind so that the shell is still sturdy.
  • Place the skins back on a tray, drizzle with oil and place in the oven for another 10 minutes to crisp up.
  • For the filling, take a kitchen fork and roughly mash the potatoes in the bowl.
  • To this, add the spring onions, cooked bacon, Glenilen Natural Yoghurt, egg, half of each cheese and salt and pepper. Mix to combine.
  • Spoon this filling back into the cooled, crispy potato shells and sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top.
  • Place back in the hot oven and bake for a further 10-15 mins.
  • Serve hot with a side of salad and lots of chive yoghurt.
