Todd Howard announced in June during Starfield Direct that the new game from Bethesda will have a lot of elements related to food. As you can probably guess, this was great news for us – so we had no choice but to take on the culinary challenge together with the Bethesda Poland division and prepare some recipes inspired by the Starfield universe for the game premiere!
As a result, we created a short video series of recipes under the banner “Constellation Cuisine”
We start with the recipe for Chunks Baked Potato. Chunks is a fast-food chain, a human food brand that serves dishes in cube form. The chain offers various flavors, starting from a baked potato, to square apples, cake, beef, burgers, and ending with… drinks such as wine or cola. When consumed, they restore some health of our hero and provide various buffs. We will write more about Chunks in another recipe, as it’s not the only flavor from this chain that we took to our culinary workshop.
So, if you don’t have enough Chunks in the cargo hold – then make them yourself! At least you will be sure what they consist of… As Chunks employees say – the recipe meets all minimum nutritional standards 😉

PREP TIME: 1,5 h
PRICE: medium
SERVINGS: 4
LEVEL: easy
YOU NEED
oven
knife
board
bowl
whisk
grater
mould for monoportion or a small cake tin
brush
INGREDIENTS:
DOUGH
800g potatoes
1/2 onion
1 large clove of garlic
1 egg, separated white and yolk
4 tablespoons / 60 ml hipping cream, about 30% fat
40 g of hard cheese, such as Grana Padano or Parmesan
2 tablespoons of allpurpose flour
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
2 pinches of nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon of salt
2 pinches of freshly ground black pepper
2 chives leaves, chopped
SAUCE
¾ cup sour cream 18% fat
a handful of dill, chopped
a pinch of salt and pepper
ADDITIONALLY
oil to brush the mold
PREPARATION
POTATO DOUGH
- Wash and peel the potatoes.
- Grate potatoes + onion + garlic on the finest holes of a grater.
- Put the grated mass into a sieve, put it on a bowl and leave it for a while so that the liquid drains out, pour out the liquid.
- Put the potato mixture back in a bowl and add the egg yolk, cream, grated cheese, flour, thyme, grated nutmeg, pepper and salt.
- Thoroughly mix everything until you get a uniform mass.
- Whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff in a metal bowl.
- Gently fold in the egg whites into the potato batter.
FORMING AND BAKING
- Brush the form with oil – you can use a small, regular cake tin and cut into squares after baking, or use a special form for the so-called monoportions.
- Put the mixture into the mould.
- Smooth the surface of the mass, then sprinkle the top with chives and pepper.
- Bake at 190°C for approx. 60 minutes until golden brown – if you want a very crispy crust, bake for 10 minutes longer until it is very brown.
DIP
Combine the dip ingredients – sour cream, dill, salt and pepper.
SERVING
Serve the baked Chunks hot with a dollop of dip sauce. You can reheat Chunks by frying them on each side in a pan until golden brown.
