Foil-Baked Potatoes with Cheese

Foil-baked potatoes with cheese: whole potatoes are rubbed with salt and vegetable oil, wrapped in foil and baked for about an hour at 200°C, then the flesh is mixed with a filling of hard and processed cheese, garlic, herbs and mayonnaise. One of our family's favorite dishes - I strongly recommend it. Enjoy!

Notes

Processed cheese is easier to grate if you freeze it briefly first.

Tips

• Check the potatoes' doneness with a skewer - it should slide in easily.
• Prepare the filling while the potatoes bake, so everything is hot at the same time.
• Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack - wrapped in foil, they won't make a mess.
