Twice Baked Potatoes RecipeIngredients:
2 medium to large baking potatoes
cooking spray (optional)
sea salt (optional)
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 stick butter, softened to room temperature
1/4 cup green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
dash of black pepper
3 to 4 slices of crisp fried bacon, crumbled
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (for topping)
paprika to taste
Spray the potatoes with cooking oil, and then grind some sea salt on them. Place them in an oven-proof dish and bake at 400 degrees for 1 hour. While the potatoes are baking, combine 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/2 stick butter, 1/4 cup chopped green onions, 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a dash of black pepper. Cover this mixture with plastic wrap, and refrigerate it while your potatoes cook. When your potatoes are done, split each of them into two equal halves with a knife. Since they will be hot, hold them with a potholder while you scoop out the potato meat. Place the potato meat in a dish, and reserve the potato shells. (It is important that this is done while the potatoes are hot.) Mix the potato meat with the mixture that you have previously made. Now blend in the crisp, crumbled bacon. Spoon this mixture evenly into the four empty potato shells. Sprinkle the top of each potato half with Cheddar cheese, to taste. Finally, sprinkle the potatoes with paprika, to taste. You may freeze the potato halves at this point, but be sure to thaw them before you bake them. When ready to bake, if the potatoes are refrigerated or cool, let them come to room temperature. Then bake them in an oven-proof dish for 20 minutes in an oven that has been preheated to 400 degrees. If they are cool when you put them in the oven, it will take a little longer. This is an elegant and great-tasting addition to any meal!
Question - why would you triple fry them? Don't they just get oilier and oiler?
Actually, to blanche potatoes for cooking preperation is a common practice commercially. Three times might be OTT. But I could understand the reasoning behind a triple-cooked potato. These tubers retain and build their starchy enzimes as they are cooled and recooked again, therefore producing a hardier and more stable product {in theory}. Fried, boiled, steamed, baked, braised, our roated - one can usually get away with paritially cooking a potato 2 to three times over without destroying in integrity of the product.
Always used to double fry "chips". The first a long fry and the second a quick dip in very hot oil to crispen the outside.
