Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).
  2. Scrub potatoes well, but do not peel.
  3. Dry thoroughly with a cloth or paper towels.
  4. Pierce potatoes several times with a sharp knife.
  5. Place potatoes in a roasting tin.
  6. Drizzle a little olive oil over each potato and roll until well coated.
  7. Sprinkle each potato well with salt and roll until evenly coated.
  8. Place the roasting tin on an upper shelf of the oven.
  9. Roast potatoes at 200°C (400°F) for approximately 1 hour or until cooked.
  10. While the potatoes are cooking, combine butter, garlic and herbs in a microwave safe bowl and cook on HIGH just until butter is melted.
  11. (Alternatively, melt butter mixture in a saucepan over medium heat.) Remove the butter mixture from the microwave (or stove) and stir in cheese and pepper.
  12. Set aside until needed (but not in the fridge!).
  13. When the potatoes are cooked, remove them from the oven but leave the oven turned on.
  14. Now, cut each potato in half, lengthwise.
  15. Using a teaspoon, scoop out most of the potato flesh being careful not to tear the skins.
  16. Place the potato flesh into a bowl and add the reserved butter/cheese mixture.
  17. Mash potato with the back of a fork until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  18. Pile potato flesh back into the skins and return potato halves to the roasting tin.
  19. Return the tin to the top shelf of the oven for 10-15 minutes or until the tops of the potatoes are a light golden brown.
  20. Remove potatoes from oven and place into serving bowls (2 halves per person).
  21. Top each potato half with a heaped teaspoonful of sour cream.
  22. Serve hot.
