Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 390°F.
  2. Scrub potatoes clean, dry them and wrap each in aluminum foil. Put the potatoes on a wire rack in the middle.
  3. Bake for 1 hour, then remove the foil and bake for another 15 minutes or until a pick or knife easily goes through.
  4. Take potatoes from the oven, slit them lengthwise, but not completely through.
  5. Add a sixth of butter to each potato, a pinch of salt & pepper, and a sixth of the shredded cheese. Mash it all together, incorporating the soft flesh of the potato, but don’t poke the crispy skin (like making mashed potatoes with cheese).
  6. Place each baked potato on a serving plate and add your favorite toppings. Serve immediately as Kumpir tastes best warm. Enjoy!
