Ingredients
Potatoes and Filling
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 250 g ground beef
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 1/2 onion, chopped
- 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Dijonnaise Sauce
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) to prepare for baking the potatoes.
- Bake the Potatoes: Place the russet potatoes directly on the oven rack or a baking sheet and bake for 45 to 50 minutes until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Cook the Beef Mixture: While the potatoes bake, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until it’s browned and no longer pink.
- Add Mushrooms and Onions: Add the sliced mushrooms and chopped onion to the pan with the beef. Cook until the vegetables are softened and fragrant. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Prepare the Potatoes for Stuffing: Once the potatoes are baked and cool enough to handle, slice each potato open lengthwise. Fluff the inside with a fork to create a soft base for the filling.
- Fill the Potatoes: Spoon the beef, mushroom, and onion mixture into each potato. Top generously with shredded Swiss cheese.
- Melt the Cheese: Return the stuffed potatoes to the oven for about 5 minutes or until the Swiss cheese has melted and is bubbly.
- Make the Dijonnaise Sauce: While the cheese melts, mix together the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard in a small bowl until smooth.
- Serve: Drizzle the dijonnaise sauce over the stuffed potatoes before serving. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Use leftover cooked ground beef instead of fresh to save time.
- Adding pickles on top of the stuffed potatoes can enhance the traditional cheeseburger flavor.
- For the best texture, serve the stuffed potatoes immediately after adding the dijonnaise sauce to prevent sogginess.
