A delicious cheesy recipe cooked individually portioned and filled with creamy flavor. This recipe utilizes the Convection and the steam on the Anova Precision Oven to cook the Potatoes evenly and more quickly than a normal oven. This dish gets a perfect char on top and nice soft potatoes underneath cooked perfectly thanks to the Anova Precision Oven.
