Ingredients

To Be Mixed Into A Stuffing
1/4 cup crumbled paneer (cottage cheese)
1/4 cup soaked and chopped sun-dried tomatoes
1 tbsp chopped jalapenos
1 tbsp finely chopped basil
salt and freshly ground black pepper (kalimirch) to taste

Other Ingredients
8 medium sized boiled and peeled potatoes
1 cup white sauce
2 tsp butter
salt to taste

Method

Heat the butter in a broad non-stick pan, add the potatoes and little salt and saute on a medium flame for 2 to 3 minutes or till they turn light brown in colour from all the sides.
Core the potato vertically through the centre using a corer so that a hollow cavity is created for the stuffing. Refer to below image.
Repeat step 2 with all the potatoes.
Stuff each of the potato with the prepared stuffing, place them on a greased baking dish and top with the prepared white sauce evenly over it and bake in a pre-heated oven at 200ºc (400ºf) for 10 minutes.
Serve immediately.
