2 tbsp fresh cream
1 1/2 tsp dry red chilli flakes (paprika)
1/2 tsp dried mixed herbs
salt to taste
2 tbsp finely chopped basil

Method

For the stuffing

  1. Soak the sun-dried tomatoes in enough warm water in a bowl for 10 minutes. Drain well, chop them finely and keep aside.
  2. Heat the butter in a broad non-stick pan, add the garlic and capsicum and sauté on a medium flame for 2 minutes.
  3. Add the sun-dried tomatoes, spaghetti, fresh cream, chilli flakes, mixed herbs and salt, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 1 to 2 minutes, while stirring continuously.
  4. Add the basil and mix well. Keep aside to cool completely.
  5. Divide the filling into 8 equal portions and keep aside.

How to proceed

  1. Combine the potatoes and enough water in a deep non-stick pan and cook on a medium flame for approx. . 15 minutes or till the potatoes are 80% cooked. Drain and cool completely.
  2. Cut each potato into half vertically and scoop out the centres of each potato halve a little, using a spoon, so that a light depression is formed for the stuffing.
  3. Sprinkle little salt over all the potato halves.
  4. Fill each potato halve with a portion of the stuffing and sprinkle ½ tbsp of cheese on each potato halve.
  5. Bake the stuffed potatoes in a pre-heated oven at 200°c (400°f) for 8 to 10 minutes.
