Time 40m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 red-skinned potatoes, about 2 inches in diameter
1 teaspoon olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
5 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon relish
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill, plus extra for garnish
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
Smoked paprika, for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Add the potatoes and oil to a resealable bag and season with salt and pepper; shake the bag to thoroughly coat the potatoes. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake until easily pierced with a paring knife, 15 to 20 minutes; cool.
  • Cut the potatoes in half so the biggest surface area is exposed. Remove all of the flesh from 4 of the potato halves with a 1/4-teaspoon measuring spoon or melon baller. Put the potato flesh in a medium bowl and discard the skins. Use the spoon to scoop out most of the potato flesh from the remaining 12 potato halves, leaving about 1/4 inch of flesh on the skins so the "shells" firmly hold their shape. Transfer the potato flesh to the medium bowl.
  • Add the mayonnaise, relish, mustard, dill and cayenne to the bowl and mash with a potato masher until well mixed and fairly smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Spoon the mixture back into the potato shells. Dust lightly with smoked paprika and garnish with dill. Serve at room temperature.
