Microwave Cookbook
Jacketed Steam Potatoes
Ingredients
• 4-6 large baking potatoes
• 2 rashes crispy bacon, sliced
• 250g cream cheese
• 200ml sour cream
• 1 tablespoon chives, chopped
• 80g grated tasty cheese
• Salt and pepper
Prep: 8 mins Cooking Time: 15 ½ mins Serves: 2-4 Function: Microwave + Grill
1. Scrub and rinse the potatoes then pierce the skin of the
potatoes with a fork multiple times. This is to help during the
cooking process so the potato skins don’t burst. Fill the
Steamer Accessory* with 1 cup of water in the bottom (3)
and place the potatoes on the second layer (2). Cover with
the lid (1) for 6 minutes on the highest microwave wattage
then turn over and cook for a further 6 minutes.
2. In a medium mixing bowl whisk the cream cheese, sour
cream, bacon and chives, then season with salt and
pepper.
3. Once potatoes are cooked, cut a cross into them making
sure not to cut all the way through. Spoon the cream cheese
mixture into the centre of the potatoes then the tasty
cheese.
4. Cook for a further 3 ½ minutes on a high Grill function then
serve either as a side or eat as a naughty but nice snack.
