Lasagne-style Jacket Potato Tray Bake
  1. Cook the jacket potatoes: Pierce potatoes, rub with olive oil and salt. Air fry at 180°C for 45 minutes, then another 10 minutes until crispy. Oven option: 200°C for about 1 hour until fluffy inside and crunchy outside.

  2. Make the cheesy béchamel: Melt butter in a pan over medium heat. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth and thickened. Season with black pepper, then stir through mixed cheese and Parmesan until melted and creamy. Set aside.

  3. Assemble the tray bake: Place all 4 crispy jackets into a large tray. Slice open and gently mash the centres with butter, salt and pepper. Spoon 1 tablespoon of béchamel into each potato and mix through the fluffy middle. Now layer in this order: Add the leftover Bolognese, pour over more béchamel sauce, sprinkle over mozzarella or mixed cheese, finish with a generous grating of Parmesan.

  4. Final melt: Bake at 180°C for 10–12 minutes or air fry at 180°C for 4–5 minutes until golden, bubbling and irresistible.
