Mushroom Taleggio Twice Baked Potatoes Recipes

TWICE BAKED POTATOES WITH MUSHROOMS AND SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet. Coat and rub the potatoes with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 1 hour until cooked through.
• In the meantime, cook the bacon on a griddle or sauté pan over medium high heat until crisp. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
• Season the shrimp with a little salt and lemon pepper. On the same griddle or pan that you cooked the bacon in, cook the shrimp for about 2 minutes on each side until pink. Set aside in a medium bowl.
• Cook the mushrooms in that same griddle or pan that the bacon and shrimp were cooked inches Sauté until tender and season with salt and pepper. Set aside in the bowl with the shrimp and poor the juices from the pan over the mushrooms and shrimp. Chop the bacon into bite size pieces.
• Remove the potatoes from the oven and cool long enough to handle them, about 10-15 minutes. Lower the oven heat to 350. Using a sharp knife, cut the potatoes, length wise, in half. Place each half on a bigger baking sheet if needed to fit. With a spoon, scoop out the center of the potato in a large bowl, leaving about a 1/4 inch border along the skin. In the bowl with the potato, add the salt, pepper, seasoned salt, butter, sour cream, milk or cream, 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, and 1 cup cheddar cheese. Mash with a potato masher. Add the bacon, mushrooms, and shrimp to the potato mixture and stir to combine with a spoon.
• Spoon the filling into each potato halve. Top each potato with the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese and sprinkle with cayenne pepper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and the potatoes are heated through. Serve while hot.
• (Note: If you want to make these potatoes ahead of time, prepare them up to the point when you fill the potatoes. Do not top with the cheeses and cayenne pepper until right before baking. Cover them with aluminum foil and refrigerate up to 24 hours.).

ULTIMATE TWICE BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake potatoes in preheated oven for 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.
• When potatoes are done allow them to cool for 10 minutes. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop the flesh into a large bowl; save skins. To the potato flesh add sour cream, milk, butter, salt, pepper, 1/2 cup cheese and 1/2 the green onions. Mix with a hand mixer until well blended and creamy. Spoon the mixture into the potato skins. Top each with remaining cheese, green onions and bacon.
• Bake for another 15 minutes.

DOUBLE-BAKED POTATOES WITH MUSHROOMS AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Pierce each potato in several places with fork. Place all potatoes directly on oven rack and bake until tender, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms; sauté until beginning to brown, stirring frequently, about 7 minutes. Add green onions; stir until wilted, about 1 minute. Set aside.
• Using oven mitts as aid, cut each potato lengthwise in half. Scoop cooked potato flesh into large bowl, leaving skin intact. Add cream cheese, sour cream, and remaining 4 tablespoons butter and mash well. Mix in mushroom mixture and 1/2 cup cheddar cheese. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Mound mashed potatoes in potato skins. Sprinkle each half with 1 tablespoon cheese. Place on baking sheet. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake potatoes until heated through and cheese melts, about 25 minutes, or 35 minutes if potatoes have been refrigerated.

TWICE-BAKED POTATOES WITH MUSHROOMS AND PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Put an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Using the tines of a fork, prick the skins of the potatoes all over and arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours until tender and cooked through. Remove from the oven and let cool until warm enough to handle, about 20 minutes.
• While the potatoes are cooling, in a medium skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook until the mushrooms are golden and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 6 minutes. Put the mixture into a medium bowl. Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise and, using a small spoon, scoop out all but 1/4-inch of the flesh. Add the potato flesh to the mushroom mixture. Add the butter, oregano, and 1 cup of the cheese. Mix well. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Arrange the potato halves, cut side up on the baking sheet. Using a pastry brush, brush both sides of the potatoes with the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil and season the inside with salt and pepper, to taste. Spoon the mushroom mixture into each potato half. Arrange 1 half-piece of prosciutto on top and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake until the cheese is melted and the prosciutto is crispy, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven, transfer to a serving platter, garnish with chopped parsley and serve.

TWICE-BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Poke the potatoes all over with a fork. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and then drizzle with the oil, turning them over to coat completely. Bake until the potatoes offer no resistance when pierced with a paring knife, about 1 hour. Let cool completely (leave the oven on).
• Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides, being careful not to break the skins (it's better to leave a little flesh in the skin than to risk breaking it). Rice the potato flesh into a large bowl and set aside.
• Stir the milk into the potato flesh along with 2 cups of the Cheddar, and the sour cream, scallions, 1 tablespoon salt, and pepper to taste. Place the potato skins on a baking sheet and divide the potato mixture evenly among them. Top the potatoes with the chopped bacon and the remaining 1 cup Cheddar. Bake until the cheese is melted, the potatoes are completely heated through and the tops are just beginning to brown slightly, 20 minutes more. Garnish with scallions and serve immediately.
