Preparation

Preheat oven to 425ºF.

Prick potatoes, spray them with cooking spray and season with salt and pepper. Roast to tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Meanwhile, heat skillet with oil, a turn of the pan. Brown and crumble the meat and add salt, pepper, cumin, coriander and chili powder. Stir to fragrant, add onions and garlic, and soften 1-2 minutes. Add brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, passata or purée and simmer over low heat to develop flavor, about 2-3 minutes.

Top the baked potatoes or halved potatoes with sloppy sauce and cheese, scallions and pickles to garnish and serve. Eat the skins -- they are full of good nutrition!
