Somosa Stuffed Baked Potatoes

Somosa Stuff Jacket Potatoes

We love Indian food, only problem is that some of us just can't eat take as much of the spicy heat.

The one thing we normally all agree on is the appetizers.

The one appetizer that TH really likes are Samosas. They are ok, but the casing is not my favourite.
The fills can be lovely, vegetable or meat.

I'd bought some larger potatoes and was trying to think what I could make that we would all eat.

We' hadn't been  to our favourite Indian restaurant in a while.
 So this got me thinking to about the Baked Potatoes. Why not make samosa stuffed baked potatoes

What you'll need

Large potatoes ( I used 3 )
butter  ~ 1 tablespoon
1 tablespoon
onion ~ 1 chopped
curry powder ~ 1 1/2 teaspoons
mustard seeds ~ 1/2 teaspoon
ground cumin ~ 1/4 teaspoon
fresh grated ginger ~ 3/4 teaspoon
frozen peas ~ 1/2 cup
fresh coriander/cilantro, chopped (some stalks included)  ~ 1 1/2 tablespoons
Salt and Pepper ~ to season
greek yogurt ~ to garnish

Wash the potatoes and piece the potatoes, bake in the oven at 200°c/400°f for about 1 hour or until the potatoes are cooked
after chopping the onion, put in a pan with the butter.
cook until the onions have started to soften, don't let the onions brown or burn
when the onions have started changing colour/softening add the mustard seeds, curry powder, ground cumin and salt and pepper.
mix well and continue to cook.
add the frozen peas and fresh chopped coriander/cilantro mix and keep on the heat at the lowest setting to keep warm.

when the potatoes are cooked, remove from the oven
cut them in half and scoop out the potato and put the potato in a bowl.
place the skins to one side
with a folk mash the potato, then add the curry onion and pea mix and and mix well.

spoon the potato mix in the potato skins, add some greek yogurt and garnish with some fresh coriander/cilantro


Enjoy!
