Jacket Potato Fillings

[NorthernLiner]

Tonight’s fillings are leftover chilli, and cheese and beans for the little ones.

What are your favourite fillings?
I love cold fillings of coronation chicken, prawn in a Marie Rose sauce and tuna mayo with red onion.

Must haves are butter, and a crisp salad.

Butter, sausage then grated cheese.
Butter, pancetta and mushrooms

Baked. With the skins rubbed with olive oil and coarse salt. Must be crispy.

cut open and liberally butter. Strong cheddar, sweetcorn and some finely diced jalapeños.

or baked beans with a little curry powder and a handful of raisins mixed in - it’s like curried beans.

My favourite is mashed egg mixed with spinach, red onion, cherry tomatoes, cucumber and mayonnaise.

BBQ beans and cheese with onion or bacon bits.

Cottage cheese

Love eg beans and cheese/chilli and cheese etc but my go-to is butter, cheese, tuna mayo with sweetcorn and then a bit more cheese on top, absolutely lush!

Also, none of this microwave business - oven only, for hours, and with a skin so hard you need a chainsaw to cut it!

Bacon and beans
Coleslaw
Chilli

In terms of name I use jacket spud or baked potato interchangeably.

Butter and topped with cheese, onion and bacon

Chicken tikka from the cafe at work. Lush!

Cornbeef and cheese mashed in with extra cheese on top

Scrambled egg! Lush.

At a food festival once I had one filled with Nasi Goreng complete with the fried egg and chilli (is it chilli?) sauce… it was actual heaven and I’ve never been able to recreate it.

Hummus and carrot with feta

Broccoli cheese too!

I’m unusual as don’t like butter on my jacket potato.
Tuna mayo or tuna/sweetcorn
very string cheese but on the side so it doesn’t melt much.

<odd>

Cheese, coleslaw, jalapeños and gherkins.

Melted cheese and pineapple sounds incredible!

Really crispy skin, slow cooked in the oven or air fryer then just loads of salted butter and cheese.
Otherwise cheesy beans or salsa, cheese and sour cream. If we have leftover beef in ale stew that works beautifully too.

Wow some great topping.

I just can't cook them well. They are hard in the middle.

What can I do better?

Tuna mayo or cottage cheese.

Smoked salmon and cream cheese
egg mayo
mince and gravy
butter cheese onion and garlic

I love loaded baked potatoes us style. Mash butter into the spuds when they come out, too with loads of grated cheddar, sour cream, bacon pieces fried until crisp, spring onions and jalapeños.

They just need longer. I find a spud in the oven takes about 1.5 hours.

Microwave first then finish in the oven.

Egg mayo, pepper and salt

Sliced up pork chop with apple sauce and extra mature cheddar cheese
