Ingredients for 4 servings:

• 12 potatoes
• 200g bacon

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 1 hour; Total time approx. 1 hour 20 minutes

from the oven

Wash the potatoes thoroughly and make close-spaced cuts. When cutting, place a wooden spoon next to the potato so you don’t cut all the way through. Place the potatoes in a baking dish and brush with a little olive oil. Cook in an oven preheated to 200°C for about 30-40 minutes. Depending on the size, fist-sized potatoes should cook for 40-45 minutes. In the meantime, prepare the cheese and bacon: cut into small pieces roughly the same diameter as the potatoes. Remove the potatoes from the oven. Place bacon and cheese alternately into the potato wedges. Brush the potatoes again with olive oil and return the baking dish to the oven. Cook for about another 20 minutes. For the yogurt and herb dip, mix all the ingredients and season to taste.
