Servings: 4 as a side dish 

Ingredients:

  • 9 medium Potatoes 
  • 1 cup Cream 
  • 1 cup Milk 
  • 1 ½ cup Tasty Cheese, grated 
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder 
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder  
  • 1 tsp Paprika 
  • 1 tsp Cumin 
  • ¼ tsp Chilli Powder 
  • ½ tsp Salt 
  • Pinch Pepper 
  • Fresh Coriander Leaves, chopped to serve


Method:  

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees. 
  2. Cut thin slits about 5mm in thickness horizontally in each potato, ensuring not to slice all the way through to the bottom. Turn over the opposite side and do a light vertical slit to help ventilate underneath. 
  3. Place potatoes in Décor glass container slit side up. 
  4. In a medium saucepan, add cream, milk, cheese, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, chilli, salt and pepper. Stir on a low heat until cheese has melted. 
  5. Pour over potatoes. 
  6. Bake in the oven for 45 minutes-1 hour or until potatoes are cooked through (use a fork to test, if they fall apart). 
  7. Serve with fresh coriander leaves.
