👨🍳 Οδηγίες
- 1
Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Wash potatoes, prick them with a fork, and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until tender. Let cool slightly, then cut in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, leaving a border. Mash the scooped-out potato flesh.
- 2
While potatoes bake, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 3
Add ground meat to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook until browned. Drain off any excess fat.
- 4
Stir in diced tomatoes, bell pepper, chopped parsley, cilantro, cumin, coriander, paprika, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender and flavors meld.
- 5
In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux. Gradually whisk in milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the béchamel sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
- 6
In a bowl, combine the cooked meat mixture with the mashed potato flesh. Mix well.
- 7
Spoon the meat and potato filling generously into the hollowed-out potato shells.
- 8
Pour the béchamel sauce over the filling, ensuring it covers the top. Sprinkle with grated cheese.

Place the stuffed potatoes on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and bubbly.
