  • 4 ounces (120 g) grated Cheddar cheese

  • 6Stir in the sour cream and only half of the cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • 7Spray some oil onto the potato shells and then add the filling, dividing equally among them.
  • 8Put the potatoes again in the Air Fryer basket and cook for another 10 minutes.
  • 9Take the basket out and then sprinkle potatoes with some more cheese; cook further 5 minutes, to allow the cheese to melt.
  • 10 Before serving sprinkle potatoes with some chopped chives.
