Twice-Baked
Potatoes Verde
page 146-47 in the book
1 wash the
potatoes and dry with a towel. With your fingers, rub a small amount of
oil on the skins to keep them from drying out during baking. Bake at 400
degrees F for 15 minutes. Pierce the potatoes a couple of times with a
fork. Reduce temperature to 350 degrees F and continue baking for another
45 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when poked or pinched. (They
can be baked a day or two in advance if it's more convenient. They can
also be cooked in the microwave. Be sure to oil and pierce the skins before
microwaving.)
2 while the potatoes are baking, steam or boil the broccoli until
tender. Put the broccoli, along with half of the milk, in a blender or
food processor and puree.
3 slice the potatoes in half and scoop out the contents into a
mixing bowl, leaving a fairly thin jacket. Arrange the potato jackets
on a baking sheet.
4 add broccoli and all the remaining ingredients to the potato
pulp and mix by hand or with an electric mixer. Adjust the texture of
the potatoes to your liking by using more or less milk, though you don't
want them to be too thin and runny.
5 spoon a generous amount of the filling into the jackets. Bake
at 350 degrees F for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve immediately.
