Instructions

Boil the Potatoes
1

a) Bring a large saucepan of water with 0.5 tsp salt to the boil on high heat for the potatoes.

b) Halve the salad potatoes (no need to peel).

c) When boiling, add the potatoes to the water, lower the heat to medium and cook until you can easily slip a knife through, 15-20 mins.

d) Once cooked, drain in a colander.

Fry the Bacon
2

a) Meanwhile, chop the bacon rashers widthways into 1cm wide strips (use scissors if easier).

b) Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.

c) Once hot, add the bacon and fry until crispy, 4-5 mins. Once cooked, transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly. 

 

Finish and Serve
3

a) Once the potatoes are cooked, pop them in a large bowl and stir through the chipotle paste (use less if you'd prefer things milder), then set aside to cool, 5-10 mins. 

b) While the chipotle potatoes cool, grate the cheese. Trim and thinly slice the spring onion.

c) Once the potatoes have cooled, add the cooked bacon, soured cream and cheese to the bowl and stir to combine.

d) Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle over the spring onions to finish.

Enjoy!
