Microwave jacket potatoes with Swedish prawn salad

Make a jacket potato in the microwave for a quick and easy dinner. We’ve filled ours with a classic Swedish skagenröra – a mix of prawns, dill and mayonnaise

Ingredients

• 2 medium baking potatoes (about 250g each)
• 100 g medium-sized prawns
• 1 tbsp chopped dill, leaves only, plus extra dill leaves to serve
• squeeze of lemon, plus wedges to serve
• 3 tbsp mayonnaise
• 30 g unsalted butter
• dill leaves, to garnish

Steps

1. Wash and lightly scrub the potatoes with a vegetable brush and dry thoroughly with kitchen paper. Prick all over with a sharp knife. Put the potatoes in the microwave on a microwave-safe plate and cook for 5 mins. Turn the potatoes over and cook for another 5 mins, then set aside covered with a tea towel.
2. Put the prawns, dill, a squeeze of lemon juice and the mayonnaise in a bowl and stir gently to combine. Taste and season with pepper to taste. Cut open the warm potatoes. Divide the butter between the potatoes, then pile the prawn salad on top. Serve with a sprinkling of dill and a lemon wedge on the side.
