Method

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan-forced). Strip leaves from thyme sprigs and finely chop (reserve the stems). Place thyme stems on a large baking tray with the potatoes. Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Use a small sharp knife to pierce each potato. Bake for 1 hour or until a small sharp knife easily slips through the centre of each potato. Set aside for 10 mins to cool.

  2. Step 2

    Meanwhile, in a large frying pan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the mushrooms and leek. Cook, tossing occasionally, for 8 mins or until mushrooms are tender. Season. Stir in the chopped thyme and cook for 30 secs.

  3. Step 3

    Use a small sharp knife to cut the top off each potato. Carefully scoop out the flesh from each potato, keeping the potato skins intact, and transfer to a large bowl. Use a fork to mash the potato flesh. Stir in the mushroom mixture, ham, sour cream, parmesan and 1/2 cup (60g) gruyère or Swiss cheese. Season.

  4. Step 4

    Spoon the mushroom mixture into the potato skins. Spoon any leftover filling over the potato tops. Sprinkle with the remaining gruyère or Swiss cheese. Bake for 10-15 mins or until the cheese melts. Season.

    Tip: Serve with watercress leaves
