Ingredients:

4 potatoes
800g
2/3 cup greek yogurt
160g
2 tsp mustard
10g
1 tsp vinegar
5g
1 cup cabbage
100g
1 apple
160g
1 cup scallions
50g
1/2 cup walnuts
120g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Potatoes:
- Scrub the potatoes thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
- Use a fork to prick the potatoes a few times all over. This helps steam to escape while they're cooking and prevents them from bursting.
2. Bake the Potatoes:
- Place the potatoes directly on the middle oven rack, or on a baking sheet, and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. The exact baking time will depend on the size of the potatoes.
3. Shred the Cabbage:
- Finely shred the cabbage using a sharp knife or a food processor.
4. Chop the Apple:
- Core the apple and cut it into thin slices or small matchsticks. Optionally, you can peel the apple if you prefer.
5. Chop the Scallions:
- Thinly slice the scallions (both the white and green parts) into small pieces.
6. Combine the Ingredients:
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, sliced apple, chopped scallions, and chopped walnuts.
7. Add the Dressing:
- Pour the yogurt dressing over the cabbage mixture. Toss everything together until well combined and evenly coated with the dressing.
8. Top with Coleslaw:
- Generously top each potato with a portion of the apple coleslaw.
9. Garnish and Enjoy:
- Optional: Garnish with additional chopped scallions, a sprinkle of extra walnuts, or a dash of freshly ground black pepper.
- Serve immediately while the potatoes are warm and enjoy your delicious and nutritious meal!

Tips:

- Choose potatoes of uniform size to ensure even cooking.

- For extra crispy potato skins, rub a little olive oil and salt on the potatoes before baking.

- Feel free to substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based alternative for a vegan version.

- Grate the apple just before mixing to prevent it from browning.

- Toast the walnuts lightly to enhance their flavor and crunch.

- Add a squeeze of lemon juice to the apple coleslaw for an extra zesty kick.

Congratulations, you've just made a delicious jacket potato with apple coleslaw!
