Serves: 4

Prep Time: 15 Minutes

Cooking Time: 1 Hour

Ingredients: 
500g Spud Lite baby potatoes, peeled 
4 bacon rashes, diced 
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup mozarella (or cheese of your choice!) 
2 tbsp olive oil 
Pinch of salt and pepper 
Fresh parsley to serve

Directions: 

  1. Pre-heat oven to 200 degrees celsius. 
  2. Boil a large pot of water over the stove, enough to completely submerge the potatoes. Boil potatoes (peeled!) for 15 minutes. 
  3. Remove from water and place into a metal sieve and begin to 'shake'. You don't want to shake too much to make mash potato through the sieve...but you want to have the potato look little 'rough'. Pour potatoes onto a lined baking tray. Sprinkle with olive oil, salt and pepper. Mix well and place into the oven for 20 minutes. 
  4. Remove from oven and sprinkle diced bacon all over. Place back into the oven for another 15. 
  5. Remove from oven and sprinkle the crumb and cheese over the top.
  6. Place back into the oven for another 5-10 minutes or until cheese is melted and crispy! 
  7. Serve with some fresh parsley.
