Ingredients




6 ounces large potatoes, about 7  each, unpeeled
6 tablespoons (¾ stick) butter
cup scant 1  finely chopped Serrano ham or prosciutto
Salt

Preparation

1 Preheat the oven to 350F. 2 Wash and dry the potatoes. Bake for 1-1.5 hours, until soft. Remove the potatoes from the oven and cut in half widthwise. (Do not switch off the oven) 3 Using a teaspoon, schoop out the flesh into a bowl without piercing the skins. Lightly season each skin with salt and divide half the butter among them. 4 Mash the potato flesh with a fork, lightly season with salt, and mix in the ham. 5 Fill the skins with the mixture and place in a single, fairly tight-fitting layer in an ovenproof baking dish. Dot the remaining butter over them and bake for 10 minutes more. Serve immediately.
