Baked Potato & Chorizo

Instead of limiting the baked potato to a supporting role, make it the main star of the show! With crispy skin on the outside but fluffy deliciousness on the inside, this loaded potato is topped with salty chorizo, toasted panko breadcrumbs, and cheddar cheese. To balance the richness, we’ve sided the dish with a raspberry vinegar-coated beetroot salad. Expect a 5-star review, Chef!

  1. MASH

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with tinfoil and lightly grease. Cut the rinsed potatoes in half lengthways and place on the tray – don’t remove the skin! Coat in oil, season, and turn cut-side down. Bake in the hot oven until the flesh is soft and the skin is crispy, 30-35 minutes.

  2. ROAST

    Spread the beetroot pieces on a separate roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. When the potatoes have been roasting for 10-15 minutes, add the beetroot and roast until crispy, 15-20 minutes (shifting halfway).

  3. NUTS & BREADCRUMBS

    Place the chopped walnuts in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside. Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. When hot, toast the breadcrumbs until lightly golden, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan and place in a shallow dish.

  4. POTATOES

    Once the potatoes are cooked, carefully spoon the flesh into a bowl without breaking the skin and fluff with a fork. Mix in a small knob of butter, the chopped chorizo, and the grated cheese, and return to the skins. Sprinkle over the toasted breadcrumbs. Bake until crispy and warmed through, 5-6 minutes.

  5. SALAD

    In a salad bowl, combine the vinegar with a drizzle of olive oil and seasoning. Toss through the rinsed green leaves, the roasted beetroot, and the toasted nuts.

  6. TIME TO EAT

    Plate up the baked potato halves, side with the loaded beetroot salad, and crumble the goat’s cheese over the salad. Good job, Chef!
