Baked Stuffed Potatoes


Ingredients:
4 medium or 2 large potatoes
1 cup chopped onions
3/4 cup diced carrots
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3/4 cup chopped red pepper
1 teaspoon ground coriander seeds
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
pinch ground cloves
4 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature
salt & black pepper to taste
Spicy Yogurt Sauce
Directions:
1. Scrub the potatoes and bake them in a 400 degree oven for one hour or until done.
2. While the potatoes are baking, prepare the filling.
3. Sauté the onions and carrots in the oil until they are tender, for about 10 minutes.
4. Add the bell pepper and spices and continue to sauté for another minute or two, stirring.
5. Add a little water to the pan to prevent sticking, cover it, and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the bell pepper is just tender.
6. Stir in the cream cheese and add salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
7. When the potatoes are baked and cool enough to handle, make a lengthwise cut in the top of each one and scoop at least half of the contents.
8. If you are using large potatoes, cut them in half lengthwise and scoop them out, leaving about 1/2 inch of potato clinging to the skin.
9. Mash the scooped-out potato and then add it to the vegetable--cream cheese mixture.
10. Lower the oven heat to 350 degrees.
11. Fill the potato shells with this mixture and place them in an oiled baking dish.
12. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
13. Serve topped with Spicy Yogurt Sauce.
Notes:
From the Moosewood Collective's Sundays at the Moosewood. Baked Stuffed Potatoes can be prepared ahead. After stuffing the potatoes, wrap them well and refrigerate for up to two days. When ready to serve, bake them in a 350 degree oven for about 45 minutes.
