Serves 8
Time 1 hr 10 min
This occasion-worthy side dish serves as an appetizer for parties, too. If you're serving a spiral-sliced ham as the main course, remove a little bit from it ahead of time for this recipe, or feel free to use beef brisket or broccoli in place of the ham.
Ingredients
- 12 small organic red or Yukon Gold potatoes (about 2 pounds)
- 1 cup (about 4 ounces) grated Kerrygold Kilaree Cheddar, divided
- 3/4 cup (about 4 ounces) finely chopped ham
- 1/4 cup nonfat plain yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Kerrygold Unsalted Pure Irish Butter, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced, thinly sliced
Method
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Arrange potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet or in a muffin tin and bake, flipping halfway through, until just tender, 35 to 40 minutes.
Carefully halve potatoes, arrange on baking sheet; cool briefly for handling.
Using a teaspoon, scoop out the middle of each potato half, leaving a 1/4-inch border around the edges and bottom.
Transfer potato flesh to a large bowl and mash roughly with a fork.
Add 2/3 cup cheddar, and the ham, yogurt, butter, salt, pepper and onions. Stir well.
Scoop some of the potato mixture into each potato half.
Scatter remaining 1/3 cup cheddar over the tops.
Bake until golden brown and hot throughout, about 15 minutes more.
