Wash and scrub the potatoes and boil in a water for about 15-20 minutes or until tender; drain well.

Place shredded garlic and butter on the baking dish. Then, place all the cooked potatoes. Using a spoon, carefully smash the potatoes until the tops are slightly flatten but still in one piece. Top with olive oil, salt and oregano.

Place into oven and bake at 200C for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.

Meanwhile, slice the mushroom and cook in unsalted butter. Then, mix with cream cheese and dill in a bowl. Set aside.

Remove the potatoes from the oven. Top each potato with cream cheese mixture. Garnish with spring onion and coriander and serve immediately.
