Bacon and Cheese Potato Skins
SERVES 4 | PREP 15 | COOK 90

Ingredients

  • Pack Naked Smoked Lardons (or any Naked Bacon)
  • 4 potatoes
  • Olive oil
  • 300g cheddar cheese
  • 2 drops of Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 springs onions and tub of sour cream

Method

  • To make these delicious bacon and cheese potato skins, first, preheat oven to 200C. Scrub potatoes and pat dry before rubbing skins with olive oil. Place on a baking sheet and bake in oven until tender (1hr) then remove from oven and allow to cool before cutting each potato lengthwise into halves.

     

    Scoop out centre, leaving a thick layer of cooked potato on skins. Place the skins on an oiled baking sheet, skin side down, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

     

    Separately, cook Naked Bacon – we’ve fried off Better Naked Smoked Lardons until brown/crisp then mixed with the scooped potato, grated cheddar cheese and a pinch of cayenne (or 2-4 drops of Worcestershire sauce). You could alternatively use grilled Naked Back or Streaky Rashers chopped into pieces.

    Sprinkle mixture into the skins and bake in the pre-heated oven until skins are crisp and cheese mixture has melted (25mins).

     

    Garnish the bacon and cheese potato skins with a dollop of sour cream and some sliced spring onions. Enjoy!

     

  • For a meatfree option:

    Use Better Naked Without the Oink Bacon. Pan fry for 3-4 mins, turning occasionally. Chop into pieces and add to the potato mix.
