Today I’d like to share my version of a potato nacho idea I spotted on Facebook a while ago. As usual, I have modified it a little.
If you remember, I always save and cook my potato peelings, see this post from my old Blogspot site for details. The recipe I saw used sliced raw potato. Perfect I thought, I can just substitute my pre-prepared version.
So I lined my oiled dish with the cooked potato peels, defrosted.
and then I fried some thin steak,
in a little oil for two minutes each side.
Now the eagle-eyed among you will have spotted that three pieces of steak became two somehow. My lips are sealed (I was always told not to eat with my mouth open!).
Anyway, slice the steak into small pieces and randomly place it over the potato. (I put some smoked Paprika on first in case you’re wondering what the red stuff is) You could put a little garlic paste on as well. Or mixed herbs, caramelised onion, whatever you fancy.
The next job is to cover the whole thing with grated cheese, I used strong cheddar.
Now it requires fifteen to twenty minutes in the oven at 180°C and a side salad.
And here it is.
I can recommend this as an easy meal, you could also use pre-cooked chicken pieces, sausages or bacon instead of the steak, the possibilities are endless.
ENJOY!

Looks divine! I’d never thought of making the discarded potato skins! Yum, except I’ll pass on the cheese. 🙂

Thanks for taking the time to comment. Potato skins are SO versatile.
