1

Preheat the oven to 200°C, gas mark 6. Line a baking tray with baking paper

2

Prick the potatoes. Bake for approx. 30 minutes until fork tender. Chop the potatoes in half. Spoon out the flesh to form a shell, leaving approx. 1cm border around the edge to support the filling.

3

Drizzle over the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the potato shells on the baking tray, skin side up and grill for 2-3 minutes until golden. Turn the potatoes over and grill for approx. 2-3 minutes then remove from the oven.

4

Finely dice the pastrami. Place the scooped potato flesh in a medium-sized bowl along with the sauerkraut and pastrami and mix together. Fill the cups with the Reuben filling and sprinkle over the grated cheese. Place in the oven for approx. 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.

5

Finely chop the chives.

6

For the dressing, combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper (to taste) in a bowl. Remove the potatoes from the oven. Drizzle over the dressing and scatter over the chives.
