Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub large potatoes, poke holes for steam, and bake for about 1 hour until tender.
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil and sauté diced onion and minced garlic for about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and cook until browned for 7-10 minutes.
  3. Stir in canned tomatoes and season to taste. Simmer for 30 minutes to thicken the sauce.
  4. Melt butter in a saucepan, whisk in flour to create a roux, then gradually add milk, whisking continuously until thickened.
  5. Slice baked potatoes open and scoop out some flesh, mixing it with bolognese sauce. Refill potato skins with this mixture.
  6. Pour béchamel sauce over stuffed potatoes and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Bake for an additional 20-25 minutes until cheese is bubbly.
