Method
Easy Cheese Bechamel Sauce
- Place milk, dairy spread, flour and nutmeg (if using) into a cold saucepan all at the same time, then bring to the boil over medium heat whisking constantly until thick, smooth and glossy
- Stir in cheese until melted. Remove from heat and set aside
Baked Potatoes
- Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan forced). Pierce skin of potatoes in several different places using a fork or skewer. Place potatoes on baking tray. Bake in oven for about 1 hour or until tender
- Remove from oven and cut a 5cm deep cross into each potato. Press sides to open cross to hold filling
- Meanwhile, in a frying pan heat oil over medium heat. Fry bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towel. Add the beans to the frying pan and heat until warmed through
- Place potatoes onto serving plates and fill with beans. Drizzle over béchamel sauce, top with crisp bacon, corn, jalapeños and coriander
Tips & Hints:
- Try filling the potato with taco mince or chopped cooked chicken instead of beans if you prefer. Jalapenos can be purchased in jars from the Mexican section of the supermarket
- To make this dish quicker, microwave the pierced potatoes on high heat for 8-12 minutes or until cooked through.
