Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C / 180°C fan.
Step 2
Pierce each potato several times with a fork and rub with the olive oil. Place on a baking tray and bake for about 1 hour - timing will depend on your oven and the size of your potato. You want to be able to pierce the potatoes with a fork and feel no resistance. Alternatively - if you want to take a shortcut you can place the potatoes, once pierced with a fork in the microwave on high for 5 minutes. Then brush with oil and place in the oven for 30 minutes. (You could bake them completely in the microwave but will not achieve a crispy, golden outer skin).
Step 3
Shortly before the potatoes are done, place the walnut-lentil ragu in a saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring often, until piping hot, about 5 minutes.(Add a splash of water to loosen it as it reheats, if needed).
Step 4
For the yoghurt, stir all ingredients together in a medium bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Step 5
Cut the jacket potatoes open and spoon some of the walnut lentil ragu on top. Dollop the yoghurt on top and sprinkle with fresh mint and parsley.
