Potato Skins, baked or deep fried? - Snacks & Appetizers

Trey · 02-03-2008, 01:30 PM

How do you make yours? I was wanting to bake them so they are less fattening, but man nothing beats a deep fried one with the crunchy crust!

Maybe if I brush a tiny bit of oil on then and broil them upside down after they bake, that might get a good crust?

Any suggestions?

if you want to bake them, then def use the oil it will make for a crisp crust. or maybe even par fry them a few seconds then bake them.

I have a recipe in which I do both!

There are certain foods I have to have my grease in!

Deep Fried....LOL!
From working at Great Steak & Potato, it's the only way I'll make 'em.

ewwwww! I'm queen of fatty fried foods, but I can't stand them fried. I love the baked ones b/c they aren't nearly as greasy and I just don't like eating greasy potato. I like greasy almost anything else, but not potato

LMAO!!! I HAVE to pat mine down a few times with a paper towel to get all the excess grease off, oh it would taste icky to me too!

We have only made them once and we did both

We fried them and then put cheese and bacon in the middles and then cooked them in the oven to melt the cheese. Then when they were done we topped them with sour cream.

SOOOO fattening, but soooooooo good!!
