Looking to elevate your jacket potato game? The ‘potato queen’ Poppy O’Toole has shared her simple yet tasty technique that’ll take your spuds from basic to brilliant! 🍽️✨
Forget the traditional cuts — Poppy’s star pattern approach is all about maximising crispiness and flavour. Just three or four extra cuts transform your potatoes into a culinary sensation. But that’s not all! The magic lies in the decadent filling: creamy garlic butter with a touch of parsley, all melting delightfully within.
Here’s a quick rundown to make these standout spuds at home:
1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (fan) or air fryer to the same.
2. Pierce and oil your potatoes, season with salt, and roast for 45-60 minutes.
3. Roast a garlic bulb wrapped in foil alongside the potatoes.
4. Combine the roasted garlic with butter, salt, and parsley to melt.
5. Mix cream cheese with salt, pepper, and a hint of sugar.
6. Slice your cooked potatoes in a star pattern, generously stuff with the cream cheese mix.
7. Drench your spuds in that luscious garlic butter, crank the oven to 210°C, and roast until golden and bubbling.
Serve these beauties sprinkled with flaky sea salt, and savour every bite. ❤️
