    Instructions

    (Stops screen from sleeping)

    1 Preheat oven to 200°C /392°F. On a baking tray, place potatoes. Prick with a fork and cook in the oven for 40-45 minutes, or until soft. Remove and set aside to cool. Turn oven down to 180°C/356°F.

    2 When cool enough to handle, slice potatoes in half lengthwise. Into a large bowl, scoop flesh, taking care not to poke holes in the skin. Set potato skin shells aside.

    3 Roughly mash potato flesh with a fork. Add onion, cheese, corn, capsicum and 1 tablespoon of the sour cream and stir to combine.

    4 Scoop potato mix back into shells. Gently press then pile more in. Return potatoes to cooler oven to cook for another 10-15 minutes, or until heated through and golden on top.

    5 To serve, divide potato halves among four plates and garnish with remaining sour cream and parsley.
