This is from *Microwave Cooking* by Lorna Rhodes & I love it! This is such a great idea for a quick-fix, 1-dish main meal that is sure to please adults & kids alike. Pair these potatoes w/a salad + some fruit & you’re good to go w/a trouble-free meal that has most of the basic food groups. If time might be even shorter than expected, prepare them the day b4 & get them on the table in minutes. Need food for a picnic or camping trip? Prepare them ahead & reheat on a grill or campfire (Time does not include the 5 minute standing time). Enjoy ! Ingredients:
4 potatoes (ea 8 oz in size) |
1 ounce butter |
3 tablespoons milk |
8 ounces corned beef (diced) |
1 (7 ounce) can corn (drained) |
2 tablespoons chutney (more as desired) |
4 ounces cheddar cheese (grated) |
salt and pepper (to taste) |
Directions:
1. Prick potato skins. Wrap ea potato in kitchen paper & cook on HIGH for 10 minutes. Turn the potatoes over & cook for 7 more minutes. Allow to stand for 5 minutes.
2. Cut potatoes in half & scoop out the flesh into a bowl. Add butter + milk & mash well. Stir in corned beef, corn, chutney, half of the cheese & salt + pepper.
3. Spoon filling into potato skins & top w/remaining cheese. Cook on HIGH for 4 minutes & serve immediately.
