Here's a quick recipe to try out at home... very easy and simple to try out in your microwave. Who does not love potatoes.. and stuffed with spices and cheese.. :-) well, you get my point.. right..??!!
Masala Stuffed Potatoes
Take 2 large size potatoes. Pierce them all over with a fork and then wrap them up in kitchen paper towels. Place them in the microwave. Set it on High and heat it for 9 minutes.
The potatoes should be soft to hold and press when they are done. Remove them out of the microwave and let them cool.
Cut them into halves and scoop out the centers.
Put all the scooped out centers into a separate bowl, add a small slab of butter and heat this for 30 seconds on high.
As the butter melts, whip this mashed potatoes mixture thoroughly while adding salt, red chilly powder (lal mirch), asafoetida (hing).
Take finely chopped capsicum, onion and corn kernels and heat them for 2 minutes in a separate bowl in the microwave with a little bit of olive oil thrown in.
Add the heated corn, onion and capsicum to the mashed potatoes mix now.
Take this mixture and put it back into the scooped out potato shells. Make strips out of cheese singlets (slices) and drape them on top of the stuffed potato shells.
Rub some salt, black pepper mixture, a dab of oil on the skins of potatoes to help reduce the wrinkling effect on skins (if you do not like them that way).
Put the filled up potato shells back in the microwave and heat it on High for 2 minutes or till cheese melts.
Take them out and they are ready to be gobbled up.. enjoy..
