Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large russet potatoes (about 2 lbs), scrubbed and dried
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 8 oz cooked corned beef, shredded
  • 1 cup (about 4 oz) Irish cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tbsp prepared horseradish (optional)
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley or chives, chopped (plus more for garnish)
  • Extra cheddar cheese, for topping (optional)
  • Chopped chives or parsley, for topping (optional)
  • Sour cream, for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Scrub and dry potatoes. Slice each potato into 1/8-inch rounds, leaving skins on if desired.
  2. In a large bowl, toss potato slices with olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin. Layer potato slices in each cup, overlapping to form a shell with a well in the center. Press down gently.
  4. Bake potato bowls for 25-30 minutes, until edges are golden and crisp and bottoms are cooked through. For extra crunch, broil 1-2 minutes if desired.
  5. While potatoes bake, mix shredded corned beef, cheddar cheese, green onions, sour cream, horseradish (if using), and parsley or chives in a bowl until well combined.
  6. Remove potato bowls from oven and fill each with a generous spoonful of the corned beef mixture. Top with extra cheddar and herbs if desired.
  7. Return filled bowls to oven and bake 8-10 minutes, until cheese is bubbling and golden. Let cool 2-3 minutes in the pan.
  8. Gently loosen each bowl from the tin with a spatula or knife. Serve warm, garnished with extra herbs, sour cream, or more cheese as desired.

Notes

For best results, use russet potatoes for crispiness. Hand-shred cheese for optimal melting. If making ahead, bake potato shells a day early and fill before serving. For dairy-free, use vegan cheese and coconut yogurt. Let bowls cool slightly before removing for best shape. Reheat leftovers in the oven for maximum crispness.
