This dish is called Potato skins, which literally means “potato skins”. In fact, this is an unrealistically delicious dish that I once tried in a restaurant and spoil my husband with it from time to time. The stuffed potatoes take a while to cook, but you will be happy with the result, I promise! You can use a vegetarian baked potato recipe without adding bacon or sausage to the stuffed potato filling.

Ingredients
2 large potatoes (do not peel the potatoes, just wash)
3 slices of sausage or bacon, or sautéed lard (chopped into small pieces)
We pierce the potatoes with a fork (4 times will be enough) and put them in the microwave for 12 minutes (until tender).
After that, cut the potatoes (while they are hot) in half (the cut must be made in length). And pick out the flesh of the potatoes with a spoon. Be gentle (hot) and don’t damage the skin.
Put the picked out pulp in a bowl and mix with pre-cut sausage, a part of grated cheese, sour cream, spices, salt.
Then put the resulting mass back into the peels and sprinkle the stuffed potatoes on top with the remaining cheese.
Put the stuffed potatoes back in the microwave for another 1-2 minutes, until the cheese melts.
