Recipes | Adora’s roasted potato with blue cheese

For 4 people.

Ingredients

4 big Adora potatoes
150 grams blue cheese
one cup of sour cream (125 ml)
50 grams of butter
2 egg-yolks
1,5 dessertspoon of chopped chives
6 spring onions, finely cut
(sea)salt
freshly-milled black pepper

You will also need
A a baking tin.

Preparation
Approx. 10 minutes; oven time: approx. 1 hour and 15 minutes or shorter**.

Pre-heat the oven to 200° C.
Clean the potatoes and remove irregularities. Pat them dry and pierce
them all-around with a sharp knife. Dust the baking tin with some coarse sea salt and put the potatoes in order on the baking tin. Roast them for 1 hour to 75 minutes, depending on the size. When the potatoes are done, cut the top off each potato. Hollow out the potatoes with a spoon, put the cocked flesh in a bowl and mash it. Mix in the blue cheese, cream and butter, egg-yolks, chives, spring onions and some pepper and salt.

Ladle the mixture into the hollow potatoes and heat them in the oven until coloured golden brown. You could also put them under the grill.
**The baking time in the oven can considerably be shortened if the potatoes are pre-boiled for approx. 10 minutes. Before boiling you should pierce them all-around with a sharp knife.

Variations

Make the filling in the same way, however then with grated Swiss cheese and some thinly cut smoked bacon.
Also tasty in a Greek style: with 90 grams of pitted black olives in
slices or pieces and 250 grams cubes of feta cheese.
