Ingredients

  • 500g Potatoes
  • 6 rashers bacon cooked and chopped
  • 140g cheddar cheese grated
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 Tablespoon chopped parsley optional, for garnishing

Method

  • Preheat oven to  200°C.
  • Wash potatoes and clean from any dirt. Place in a pot. Fill with water, covering the potatoes. Bring to a boil. Turn the heat off. Cover and let the potatoes stand for 5-7 minutes.
  • Drain the water and cut potatoes in half. Using a small spoon, scoop out some of the inside of the potatoes, to make some room for the filling. Place in a greased baking dish and sprinkle with half of the cheese. Bake for 2 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
  • Add the bacon and the remaining cheese. Bake for 2-3 more minutes, until the cheese is melted and the tops look golden.
  • Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
