Preparation
- Bake the potatoes until soft, then split and mash plenty of butter into the flesh, followed by the cheese.
- Grate 150g of cheese (as much as you like).
- Finely chop one onion and one sweet red pepper.
- Put these into a large bowl with a good sprinkling of salt and pepper, and chilli flakes if using, then pile onto the potato along with any other toppings you fancy — sweetcorn, olives, coleslaw and more.
