Another old pre-Ankle Biters resurfaced at Chez KP this evening. The baked potato in all it’s awesomeness.
A big old tatie, rubbed with a little oil and baked in a moderate oven for an hour to an hour and a half depending on size. Then cut her open, season, slip in some butter, some panfried mushrooms and sliced bacon and some grated cheese. Top that with sour cream and spring onions.
Heaven my friends, heaven.
Approx. cost per serve $1.20
Thank you, great idea. That’s what Mr I’m-Developing-Fussy-Habits will have for dinner, if he’s going to turn up his nose at my salmon filo pie as he did last night. Humph.
Well if he’s going to be like that he doesn’t deserve a good old baked tatie! Who in their right mind would turn their nose up at salmon filo pie? (big Mr or little Mr?)
Little. But i got my revenge – I gave him half a baked spud with butter and melted grated cheese, along with some salmon pie, and told him he could have the rest of the potato if he ate all his pie. The deal worked. Then he had pudding.
Actually have no idea how he managed it at all after what he’d eaten today. Adult-sized bowl of porridge with sultanas, 2 apples, 1 banana, 1 pear, sandwiches from 2 thick slices of homemade bread, crackers, some lollies from a birthday party bag… all that by 3pm. Hollow legs. And do you know what he said? “You should give me more for breakfast, mum.” :/
