Method

  1. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Use a fork to prick the potatoes all over. Rub with a little of the oil, and bake for 45 mins until tender.
  2. Meanwhile, make the chilli. Heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion, garlic and some seasoning, and cook for 5 mins until soft. Add the turkey mince and season again, then increase the heat and break up the mince with the back of your spoon. When it's cooked through, add the spices, vinegar, sugar and passata. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 mins or until the liquid has reduced.
  3. Cut a cross in the top of each potato and spoon in the chilli. Serve each potato sprinkled with cheese and spring onions.

    I added kidney beans too and also sweetcorn and pinch of mild chilli powder and it was really really good. Children and hubby gave it a big thumbs up!

    Brilliant recipe !!!!!..... Way too complicated though :-( .... My Auntie Doris and Uncle Ken reckon its much better with a dollop of Smash and a can of 'Value' mince and onion from their local Nisa .... It's only a subtle change to the recipe but they assure me that it works!!! Nice one Doris and Ken!!

    Bland and watery after the set cooking time with these ingredients. Seems like everyone has had to alter the recipe so a bit surprised at the huge rating. In fact the Squid's suggestion wouldn't have been much worse. I doubled up and used a can of tomatoes, tomato purée chilli flakes and kidney beans then let it thicken for an hour. It was then passable.
