About

Here’s a tasty snack with a spicy touch, although it’s not really authentically Moroccan - I like to sprinkle some grated Cheddar over the potato skins during the final few minutes of cooking.

Method

Preheat the oven to 220°C/425°F/gas mark 7. Cut the skin off the potatoes so it is about 2cm (¾ in) thick, wash it thoroughly and dry well. Place in a large baking dish.

Mix together all the remaining ingredients except the cheese, pour over the skins and toss well together. Pl
