Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
-
Prepare Potatoes: Pierce the baking potatoes with a fork to allow steam to escape during baking. Place them in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 1 hour, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
-
Cool Potatoes: Once baked, remove the potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Then, place them on a baking sheet.
-
Prepare Potato Shells: Carefully slice the skin away from the top of each potato. Using a spoon, delicately scoop out the pulp, ensuring to leave about 1/4 inch of pulp inside the shell. Be cautious not to tear the shells.
-
Prepare Filling: Transfer the potato pulp into a mixing bowl. Mash the pulp using a fork or potato masher until smooth. Add 6 tablespoons of sour cream, 6 tablespoons of butter, 2 tablespoons of horseradish, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix the ingredients until well combined.
-
Fill Potato Shells: Spoon the prepared filling into the potato shells, evenly distributing it among them. Place the filled potato shells back onto the baking sheet.
-
Bake Potatoes: Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake the stuffed potatoes for an additional 50 minutes, or until the filling is heated through and the tops are golden brown.
-
Prepare Horseradish Cream Topping: While the potatoes are baking, prepare the horseradish cream topping. In a separate bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of sour cream and 2 tablespoons of horseradish. If desired, finely chop fresh dill and add it to the mixture for an extra burst of flavor. Cover the bowl and chill the topping until the potatoes are ready to serve.
-
Serve: Once the stuffed potatoes are done baking, remove them from the oven. Spoon the horseradish cream topping generously over each potato, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully. Serve the Stuffed Baked Potatoes with Horseradish Cream hot and enjoy the delightful combination of creamy, savory goodness with a hint of zesty horseradish flavor. π΄π₯
