Crispy Potato Skins with Bacon.

Time for some more Weekend indulgence. God bless the Epicure who came up with the idea for Crispy Potato Skins. This would go perfectly well with crackling ham and some Wine.  Have a spiffing Brunch everyone. Bon Appetit

Ingredients 

1) 2 Potatoes
2) 2 tsp Salt
3) 2 tsp Black Pepper

For the filling
1) 1/2 cup Sweet corn
2) 2 slices of Bacon, fried and chopped.
3) 1/4 cub Scallion, chopped
4) 1/2 cup shredded cheese

Recipe 

1) Using a fork prick the potatoes, all over. Transfer to a baking dish and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Microwave them on High power(900) for 7 minutes. The skin of the potatoes will shrivel up. When the potatoes have cooled down, slice them into halves and scoop the potato flesh out. Scoop as much as possible, without tearing the skin.
2) Brush both the sides of the potato skin with butter. Apply salt and pepper from the pan to the potato skins. Keep on a high rack and bake in a preheated oven(200 C) for 10-15 mins(each side or until the potato skin crisps up).
3) In a bowl combine the Potato flesh with the corn and scallions. Fill up the Crispy Potato skins with this filling. Top with the bacon and shredded cheese. Bake in a preheated oven(180 C) for 12-15 mins. Drizzle with some lemon juice and serve hot!
