Baked Potatoes With Goat Cheese Recipes

POTATO AND GOAT CHEESE GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Grease the bottom and sides of a 1 1/2-quart gratin dish with the butter.
• Make a layer of overlapping potato slices on the bottom of the dish and sprinkle with half of the garlic and 1/3 of the goat cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Repeat with another layer of potatoes, the remaining garlic, another 1/3 of the cheese, and season with salt and pepper. Finish with a final layer of potatoes and the remaining cheese and season with salt and pepper. Pour the heavy cream over the top of the potatoes and, using your hands, press to condense the layers slightly. Make sure the potatoes are all covered with cream.
• Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the gratin is bubbly and golden brown on top and the potatoes are cooked through. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

• Drain the potatoes and garlic and process them together through a food mill fitted with the coarsest blade set on top of a bowl. While the potatoes are still hot, stir in the goat cheese, butter, sour cream, half-and-half, 4 teaspoons salt and 2 teaspoons pepper until smooth.
• Pour the mixture into a 9-by-12-by-2-inch oval baking dish, smoothing the top. Sprinkle the Parmesan on top and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until lightly browned. Serve hot.

TWICE-BAKED POTATOES WITH GOAT'S CHEESE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Prick each potato a few times with a fork. Place in the oven and cook for 1 hr. Remove from the oven and, using a tea towel to protect your hands, cut them in half lengthwise. Use a spoon and scoop out the flesh, leaving behind enough skin and flesh to form a shell.
• Heat the grill. Place the potato halves, cut side up, onto a baking tray. Brush with a little melted butter then grill for 3-5 mins until starting to crisp. Meanwhile mash the potato flesh with 100g of goat's cheese, any leftover butter and cream, then season well. Spoon a little mash back into each potato shell, then top with a slice of goat's cheese. Place under the grill and cook for 5 mins until golden.

BAKED GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Press goat cheese to fit the shape of a small baking dish, leaving a 1-inch border around the edge. Gently spoon marinara sauce around the border, taking care to cover the edge of goat cheese but not the middle. Sprinkle with salt.
• Bake in the preheated oven until goat cheese is hot and soft and marinara sauce is hot and bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and sprinkle with basil.

TWICE-BAKED POTATOES WITH GOAT CHEESE AND TARRAGON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Put the potatoes on the oven rack and bake until very tender, about 1 hour. Protecting your hand with an oven mitt, slice the top third off of each potato and discard or save for another use. Being careful to leave the skins intact, use a spoon to gently scoop out the flesh from the potatoes and place it in a mixing bowl. Transfer the potato skins to a baking sheet.
• While the potato flesh is still hot, add the goat cheese and butter and use a potato masher or fork to mash them in. Continue to mash until the mixture is smooth. Stir in the milk and tarragon. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Pile the mashed potatoes back into the skins. Raise the oven temperature to 450 degrees. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the potatoes and bake until the tops are golden, 20 to 30 minutes.
