Pro Tips & Variations:
- For extra crispiness: After filling, place under the grill (broiler) for 1–2 minutes to brown the top.
- Swap the cheese: Use goat’s cheese or a smoky cheddar if blue cheese isn’t your favourite.
- Make it vegan: Substitute crème fraîche with cashew cream, and pick a vegan blue cheese alternative.
- Add texture: Scatter toasted walnuts, crispy onions, or breadcrumbs on top.
- Scale for parties: Use small jacket potatoes as “bites” for guests to spoon over themselves.
