Ingredients

• Large baking potatoes - 2
• Cooked corn kernels - 150 grams
• Butter - 30 grams
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Cheddar cheese, grated - 100 grams
• Sour cream - 100 grams
• Chopped green onions - 2 tablespoons
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. Scrub the potatoes under cold water and pat them dry. Prick each potato several times with a fork.
3. Rub the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place them directly on the oven rack and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a knife.
4. While the potatoes are baking, prepare the corn topping by mixing the cooked corn kernels, chopped green onions, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl.
