Method
step 1
Preheat the oven to fan 180C/conventional 200C/gas 6. Wash the potatoes and prick each one with a fork. Place on the middle oven shelf and bake for 30-40 minutes until golden and crispy outside and cooked in the middle.
step 2
Remove from the oven, leaving it on. When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, halve each one and scoop the fluffy flesh into a bowl. Add the salmon, horseradish, chives, spring onions, soured cream or crème fraîche and lemon juice. Season well and mix gently.
step 3
Put the empty potato skins on a baking sheet and brush with oil. Return to the oven for 5 minutes to crisp, then spoon in the filling. Cover with foil and return to the oven for 5 minutes. Garnish with chives, lemon zest and pepper.
