Where to find ingredients
Potatoes and Parmesan cheese can be found in the produce and dairy sections of any supermarket. Creamy cheese spread, similar to a thick cream cheese or a spreadable cheese, is available in the dairy aisle of most supermarkets. If a specific Brazilian creamy cheese spread (like Catupiry) is desired, it may be found in Latin or specialty international food stores.
Preparation method
- Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pierce their entire surface a few times with a fork
- Place the potatoes in a covered container and microwave for about 20 minutes, or until tender
- Remove the potatoes from the microwave and, carefully, cut them in half lengthwise
- Using a spoon, scoop out some of the potato flesh from each half, creating a cavity for the filling
- In a bowl, mix the creamy cheese spread and the grated Parmesan cheese
- Season with salt to taste
- Fill the potato cavities with the creamy cheese and Parmesan mixture
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 15 minutes, or until the filling is lightly golden and bubbly
- Remove from the oven and serve immediately
