Equipment
Ingredients
- 6-8 large potatoes washed and cleaned
- 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper
For the filling:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 brown onion finely diced
- 400 grams lean pork mince
- 1 x 400 gram can black beans drained and rinsed
- 1 ½ cups
enchilada sauce - ½ teaspoon red chilli flakes optional
Toppings:
- ⅔ cup dairy free cheddar cheese
- ⅓ cup dairy free sour cream
- Pickled jalapenos
- coriander/cilantro optional to garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F and line a baking tray with baking paper. Prick the outside of each potato with a fork and rub with olive oil and place evenly spaced on the baking tray. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place the potatoes in the oven and bake for 60-70 minutes (depending on the size of your potatoes) until soft.
- While the potatoes are cooking, make the filling. In a large frying pan over medium heat, heat the olive oil and add in the onions. Cook the onions until softened and starting to brown. Add in the pork mince and break it apart with a wooden spoon. Continue to cook until the mince has browned.
- Add in the black beans, enchilada sauce and chilli flakes if using and allow the mixture to simmer for about 10 minutes until thick.
- Once the potatoes have cooked through, slice them down the middle and top with dairy free cheese. Place them back into the oven (switch to grill if your oven has that function) until the cheese has melted.
- Top the potatoes with the mince mixture and then finish with your desired toppings such as sour cream, pickled jalapenos and coriander.
