Boil potatoes in water until they are completely soft inside, ensuring the skin remains intact.

Let the boiled potatoes cool down so they can be handled safely.

Cut the cooled potatoes in half carefully without breaking them.

Scoop out the insides of the potatoes using a spoon, creating a hollow space for stuffing.

Prepare the stuffing by adding cheese into the hollowed-out potatoes, pressing it down firmly.

Top the stuffed potatoes with bell pepper and tomato sauce for decoration.

Season with black pepper and oregano for flavor.

Drizzle olive oil over the stuffed potatoes.

Add a pinch of salt for taste.

For baking, you can either use an oven or a pot with a lid; if using a pot, place a strainer inside and cover it to melt the cheese.

If using an oven, bake the stuffed potatoes until the cheese is melted.
