Bacon-Wrapped Baked Potatoes

Boil the potatoes in their skins in salted water for 30–40 minutes, until fully cooked.

Slice the bacon into thin, long strips — one strip per potato.

Slice the cheese into the same number of thin slices.

Let the potatoes cool slightly, then peel them. Cut each potato in half lengthwise.

Place a slice of cheese on one half.

Cover with the other half.

Wrap with a strip of bacon. You can secure the bacon with a toothpick.

Transfer the prepared potatoes to a baking dish or simply onto a baking sheet.

Place a thin pat of butter on top of each potato. Bake in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for 20–30 minutes.

Done.

Serve the bacon-wrapped baked potatoes immediately, while hot.
