Preparation

Pierce potatoes and bake with skins on, at 350 °F (180 °C), for approximately 45 minutes. Cut potatoes in half and remove pulp, leaving 1/4 inch (1/2 cm) on the skin, and put in a salad bowl. Set aside hollowed-out potatoes.

Heat 3 tbsp (45 mL) of butter in pan; add onions and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, then add ground pork. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 3 minutes. Add potato pulp to the mixture and use it to fill hollowed-out potatoes.

Place a slice of Canadian Cheddar on each potato and sprinkle with paprika. Broil in oven for 2 minutes. Mix together all sauce ingredients; season with salt and pepper to taste. Sauce can be served cold with hot potatoes.
