Brits are a nation that loves potatoes. Fried, baked, roasted or mashed, potatoes are incredibly versatile (and cheap), whether served as a side dish or as the main event.

During the Christmas season, the only potatoes that usually make it onto the plate are smothered in duck fat and roasted, but this year, we’re changing things up by making the humble potato centre stage with the help of Bannisters Farm, who have come up with a range of Christmas-inspired recipes. From Parma ham and stilton to glazed ham and Wensleydale cheese, these jacket potato recipes are perfect for using up Christmas leftovers or as an alternative to a Christmas dinner.
