Ingredients 4 people

Difficulty: medium

Prep Time: 1 hour

• 4 potatoes of 7 oz. each approx.

• 2/3 butter

• 1 cup Manzanilla pitted olives

• 8 slices of bacon

• 1 cup of sour cream

• 2 tbsp. chopped chives

Directions

Step 1: Chop the olives into slices and leave some of them to decorate.

Step 2: Wash the potatoes very well and cut the potatoes like an accordion, which is to say with parallel cuts of half a centimeter without reaching the bottom part of the potato so that it stays together. With the help of a brush smear the inside of the potato well with butter in and bake at 300º for 1 hour. The last 10 minutes raise the temperature to 180º to brown.

Step 3: While the potato is baking, cut bacon into small squares and brown over medium heat until it loses its fat.

Step 4: Once the potatoes are baked, add a good spoonful of sour cream, bacon, chopped chives and plenty of sliced olives.
