An easy potato dished often served as an entrée for a meatless menu. Serve them with a green salad.
Serves 4
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 40 minutes
Ingredients:
- 8 medium potatoes, washed and halved lengthwise
- 3 T olive oil
- 1 T butter, melted
- 2 T caraway seeds
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation:
Pre-heat oven to 350°F and grease a cookie sheet large enough for your potatoes with a little of the olive oil. Brush the cut-side of the potatoes with a mixture of butter and olive oil and lay them, cut side up, on the cookie sheet. Sprinkle with caraway, salt and pepper. Bake for about 40 minutes or until a fork pierces them easily.
Serve with Herbed Quark.
Variation:
Baked Potatoes with Marjoram
Great for your next potluck.
Instead of caraway, sprinkle each potato with freshly chopped marjoram, 1 tsp sunflower seeds and 1 T shredded gruyere cheese. Bake as directed. May be served without quark as a side dish. Serve warm or room temperature.
