Potato Skins with Cheddar, Bacon & Chives by Lurpak

1. Preheat oven to 220°C /425°F/ Gas Mark 7. Poke holes in potatoes and wrap in foil. Bake in oven for 45-60 minutes.
2. Cut off a little of the base of the potato and turn upright to enable it to stand. Cut a larger section off the top of the potato. Scoop out the hot flesh and mix with the cheese, spring onions, chives and Lurpak® Spreadable Unsalted. Season and place back into the potato skins. Pour pepper sauce around base of potato.
3. Saute half an onion finely diced, with the diced bacon and 2 tbsp of crushed green peppercorns with 1 tsp of Lurpak® Spreadable Unsalted. Fry until the onion is almost caramelised.
4. Add two good splashes of brandy or white wine.
5. Cook until almost evaporated then add the double cream and reduce until a little thicker. Serve immediately!
