Other Ingredients
- 1 tbsp Butter unsalted
- 1/2 cup Mozzarella Cheese shredded
- 5-10 leaves Mint Leaves for garnish, fresh
Instructions
Prepare the Potatoes
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Wash potatoes thoroughly, leaving the skins on. Rub potatoes with 1/2 tbsp butter. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until tender.
Roast the Vegetables
- While potatoes are baking, heat remaining 1/2 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Add grated carrot, beetroot, and shredded cabbage. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, until slightly softened.
- Stir in mixed herbs, dried basil, ginger, salt, and pepper. Cook for another minute, then remove from heat.
Assemble and Bake
- Cut baked potatoes in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out some of the potato flesh from the center, leaving about a 1/4-inch border. Mix the scooped-out potato with the roasted vegetables.
- Spoon the vegetable mixture back into the potato skins. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Finish and Serve
- Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly. Garnish with fresh mint leaves. Serve immediately.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of smoked paprika to the roasted vegetables.
- If you prefer a crispier potato skin, broil the potato boats for the last 2-3 minutes of baking.
- Feel free to experiment with other vegetables, such as zucchini, bell peppers, or mushrooms.
- For a vegetarian option, substitute the butter with olive oil.
