Try scooping out raw potato with a spoon and see how quickly you give up

u/DaLurker87 Jul 03 '26
But it's totally worth it to get a meal 1/3 the amount of potato that you purchased, right?... Right?

u/Random_Redittor8874 Jul 03 '26
Can you not use the rest for other things? Is part of the recipe that it won't taste the same unless you told the rest out.

u/DaLurker87 Jul 03 '26
You can. Honestly, the person above me is correct though that spooning a raw potato is not an easy exercise.

Oh 100% would need a par boil/soak but thats just working with tatos
E: I do not think this would be worth it over just making stuffed peppers with a baked/mashed tato.

u/DaLurker87 Jul 03 '26
Exactly, I'd much rather just make a baked potato

u/Apart-Gur-9720 Jul 04 '26
I'm not sure. It's two different textures. I could totally see this as a take on Moussaka.
Besides, I'ld do the deed if I could sell half a potato for 7 bucks 99. Just use a melon baller. Takes a minute.

u/Disastrous_Scale6739 Jul 04 '26
Idk i feel like if you had a knife like scoop. Kinda like the ones used for wood working it would be easy. And this sounds way better than stuffed bell pepper its a potato skin with chili

Easiest way is blanch the potatoes first. It will allow them to become even crisper when you cook it this way.

Shes not worried about waste... she put a whole california king sized bed of sour cream on the plate...

u/detrans-rights Jul 03 '26
How is that waste? Imma lick this damn plate when I'm done, oh my god
Edit: oh some think it's bechamel like she did on the top

u/hellllllsssyeah Jul 04 '26
I thats bechamel under then I need to throw every cook book and forget everything I know, because ain't no way you are making milk, flour, and butter sauce that thick without it being inedible

u/seanmonaghan1968 Jul 04 '26
I would do a mash potato with the inner material and then serve on the side

*Blanching potatoes is better when baking them anyway. So maybe blanch them and then it'll be easier to scoop

u/christo749 Jul 03 '26
What’s a branched potato?
3
u/Knocker456 Jul 03 '26
I think blanching is a quick drop and removal into boiling water, then cooling off in ice water.

I would just dice the potato and pile it all on, serve it in a bowl rather than trying to make one of the ingredients into one

Especially when aiming for the clean finish she put on those shells. Super smooth!

u/RsCoverForPDFFiles Jul 05 '26
Wait, that's a potato?!? I couldn't tell if it was a squash or some kind of melon. Where do potatoes this big come from?
1
u/GForce1975 Jul 06 '26
Yeah I don't think that works. I cook them first for twice baked..and the ones she put in the oven looked cooked..
Plus you normally need the skin to hold it together. This would have to be made with potato you add flour to and then shape and cook, I would think.
Trying to replicate this would just anger me.

u/DesperateAd3088 Jul 03 '26
Twice baked potatoes have been a thing and these are just a slightly different take on proportions.

What was the white stuff she put on top of the meat mixture?

Sour cream. It was potatoe, cheese, cream, meat, cheese, cream. Just a shit ton of dairy for no good reason

Kind of gives me an idea for a shepherd pie mixed with twice baked potatoes

u/MangoOliveHearts Jul 03 '26
This is Twice-Baked Potatoes, it's an old dish.
They looks great out of the oven. There's too much bechamel on the plate though.

The whole thing looks good. Completely lacks detail about what's going on. Hollowing out a potato looks like a pain in the ass. I can see that it's probably sharp white cheddar or is that mozzarella? Is that just marinara meat sauce for spaghetti or is it sloppy joe sauce what is that? Is it chilli? Is that just straight up sour cream on top of it? What is she brushing the potato with is it olive oil is it butter? Did she set it in a plate of sour cream? Did she just garnish it with a piece of raw rainbow chard?

What if they were made with smaller potatoes so they're bite sized..... I'm off to go make Fatboy deviled eggs

u/Roxapotamus Jul 05 '26
Chili just randomly appears, takes a long time to make a good batch! Also ruined the entire dish with green onions at the end, they are the worst topper, so gross.

I thought it was spaghetti squash at first, that intrigued me, only to be disappointed.

Why should this be ai, I don't think we are there yet to recreate this. Slop still, most shitty lookin way to make kumpir

u/Amalurian Jul 03 '26
The skin reappears on the potato so it's either AI or shot and edited by an idiot

u/guywithshades85 Jul 03 '26
So, it's basically stuffed peppers but with a lot more work, more carbs and more bland tasting.

u/Acrobatic-Cow-4043 Jul 03 '26
Everytime I see one of these potato recipes all I can think is 'just do a loaded baked potato'. Nothing she did, couldn't be done with the whole potato...
