Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes , cooked*
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 4 cloves garlic confit , minced *see alternatives
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons chives , chopped for garnish
- 2 tablespoons Bacon , crumbled
- Maldon sea salt and freshly ground pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cut each cooled potato in half and scoop out flesh, leaving 1/4 inch around the skin. Flip each half over and cut a small piece off so potatoes sit upright on the baking sheet. Use a rimmed baking sheet with plenty of space between each potato halve to prevent them from steaming.
- Place flesh into a medium mixing bowl and mash with melted butter, roasted garlic, sour cream and fine sea salt. Since potato sizes vary greatly, you may need to add a little more sour cream or melted butter. Use a hand held potato masher until mixture pulls away from the sides and is shiny.
- Fold in shredded cheese by hand.
- Spoon into each empty potato skin. Bake for 30 minutes, or until tops start to brown. You can put them under the broiler for a few minutes to get the gorgeous brown look.
- Remove and top with chives, bacon, Maldon sea salt and freshly ground pepper.
