Ingredients
- Garlic Clove: 1 garlic clove, crushed
- Basil Leaf: 1/2 small pack basil leaves, shredded
- Olive Oil: 1 tbsp olive oil
- Chopped Tomato: 400g can chopped tomato
- Baking Potato: 4 baking potatoes
- Red Onion: 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
- Mozzarella: 100g grated mozzarella
- Pepperoni: 60g pack sliced pepperoni, torn
Directions
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Scrub the potatoes and dry well, then prick several times with a fork. Bake directly on the oven shelf for 1-1 1/2 hrs, until they feel soft. If you are short of time, prick each potato with a fork, wrap in a sheet of kitchen paper and microwave on High for 8-10 mins until soft inside.
- While the potatoes cook, heat the oil in a small pan and saute the onion for 5 mins to soften. Stir in the garlic and pepperoni, and cook for 1-2 mins, then add the chopped tomatoes. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 5 mins. Season and stir in half the basil. Spoon over the split potatoes and top each one with a good handful of cheese and the rest of the basil.
