How to Make Potatoes On The Half Shell
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Scrub potatoes thoroughly and pierce several times with a fork. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork.
- Once potatoes are tender, remove from oven and let cool slightly. Cut each potato in half lengthwise.
- Carefully scoop out the potato flesh, leaving about 1/4-inch border, and place in a large bowl. Set the potato shells aside.
- While the potato flesh is still warm, mash it with 2 tablespoons of butter, the milk, and beaten egg until light and fluffy.
- Stir in the chopped onion, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Brush the inside of the potato shells with the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Fill each potato shell generously with the potato mixture.
- Sprinkle the tops with Parmesan cheese.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned.
