Baked potatoes are always a real hit, but this time we’re going to make them a little different than what we’re used to. We are going to enrich it with an excellent garnish of cream, garlic and parmesan and gratinate everything.
This time we found the recipe on the Miss7 portal, but it was designed by one of the most famous chefs. Jamie Olivier. The latter promises that such potatoes will impress everyone at the table, and the beauty of this dish is that we can arrange it a little on our own. You can add bacon cubes to the filling, and you can even enhance it with a handful of chestnuts or walnuts if you have them on hand.
The recipe is one of the most traditional French ones, and mushrooms, minced leeks or other vegetables are often added to make it even richer.
