Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 190°C.

  • Squeeze the roasted garlic from its skin and pulse with the roasted vegetables in a food processor until smooth.
  • Thin the soup in a saucepan using vegetable stock or cream, adding Worcestershire sauce or balsamic vinegar if desired.
  • Halve the hot potatoes and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
  • Mix the potato flesh with butter, crème fraîche, chives, goats' cheese, and egg.
  • Fill the skins with the mixture and bake on a tray for 15 to 20 minutes until golden.
  • Reheat the soup and serve in bowls with two potato halves on the side.
